Reason for rowing:
The World’s Toughest Row presents an extraordinary test of both physical and mental resilience, as well as an incredible opportunity to raise valuable awareness and funding for our chosen charities. During 2022 I raised over £2,000 for T-21 (Birch Tree Cafe), by completing monthly challenges alongside one of my closest friends, whose family benefits from their impactful work. These experiences have opened my eyes as to what you can achieve by being consistent; as a result of which, I continue to push myself physically through running, lifting weights and gymnastics.
As I witnessed the triumphant arrival of the first couple of teams at the finish line in Antigua during the 2023 race, my motivation soared to new heights. Meeting some of those inspiring rowers has kindled an even greater flame within me, reinforcing my commitment to take on this formidable challenge.

Reason for rowing:
​
From the age of 12, I found myself captivated by the annual spectacle of The World’s Toughest Row. Each year, I would marvel at the extraordinary challenge of conquering the Atlantic, a feat that seemed insurmountable to my
younger self.
Now, 12 years later, I stand on the precipice of that very challenge, ready to take on the Atlantic alongside four of my closest friends. This endeavour represents more than just a childhood dream; it is an opportunity to test the limits of my mental and physical endurance. Moreover, this challenge provides a platform to support a cause that holds a special place in my heart - Dementia Adventure.
This remarkable charity has supported my family members affected by dementia, enabling them to continue experiencing life’s joys even in the face of adversity. By participating in The World’s Toughest Row, I aim to embody the values of Dementia Adventure. This challenge, much like the journey of those living with dementia, is about resilience, courage, and the pursuit of life’s adventures despite the obstacles we face. Together, we can make a difference and transform the lives of those affected by dementia.
