The Brightsides
Charity row - raising money for two charities.
‘The Brightsides’ represents a team of three men and one woman, rowing the Atlantic as part of the Atlantic Dash race
Leaving from Lanzarote on January 3rd 2024. The finish will be in Antigua, some 40 days later.
A lot of energy will be expended in this time, over 6000 calories a day, as we row two hours on and two hours off for the full
3200 mile journey.
Fund raising for the charities is as important to the team as is how many days we take to cross. Every little helps\!
We are raising money for two amazing charities, Meningitis Now, and Get A Head, and our aim is to try and reach a target of £250,000 .

Well done all and glad that you made it - what an incredible achievement, especially with all that the weather threw at you! I'm a bit late to the party with my homecoming donation but here's a bit more to add to these brilliant and important causes. I'll be in touch, Rod, re the turkey that I won at the Warks Farmers' Ball! Cheers all; everyone is so proud of you all and of your families.
