Lands End to John O'Groats Charity Row (Charity)

On the 29th June a 6 man team will attempt to row the 1097 miles from Lands
End to John O’Groats all in aid of 4 worthy charities. The group mainly made up
of Leicestershire businessmen hope to raise £20,000 for each of the 4 charities
during their 3 week voyage.
Navigating the South West coast from Lands End, the team will head inland at
Sharpness Lock, Bristol. Aiming for Grimsby and the treacherous North Sea, they
will be passing through various towns and cities including Birmingham, Leicester
& Nottingham where they hope to stop for a few hours to meet with the public.
The final leg of the voyage sees them navigate the perilous North Sea where they
will spend 6 days at sea, rowing 24 hours a day in 2 x 3 man teams, to reach
their final destination of John O’Groats on time.
