    Thank you so much to everyone.

    All the wonderful donations listed on this page, Grants and Funding received, Raffle tickets sold, have all combined together and helped to achieve the money required to send Jess to Rotterdam.

    Thank you to all who donated goods and/or services, bought raffle tickets, donated to the page, supported Jess, helped with the funding applications and processes, the list is endless and we cannot thank everyone enough.

    It has been such a humbling experience and we are so grateful to everyone involved. Jess heads off on Sunday for 3 months, we will miss her immensely but are very proud of her and what she has achieved.

    Thank you all. Chris and Vicky.

    Hi everyone, in case you haven't seen it, here is the article HB Today did last week. We had to meet them at the Rowing Club for it, I am getting less nervous now when I have to do these things!

    We are so humbled by everyone that has been donating, I will be doing my best to make not only my family (& country) proud, but also all of you who have helped make my dream a reality - I cannot thank you enough. Jess.
