Story

Tom, Steve, Sean and Billy will be taking part in the “Round the Island Race”, which means that we’ll be sailing round the Isle of Wight in late June. 

This means that four lads, who have no sailing experience will be racing a yacht! The race attracts over 1700 yachts and 16000 sailors (hello Sailor!!) and the course is over 50 nautical miles (we don’t even know what that means).

 

We’re taking part to raise money for Keech Hospice in Luton. 

 

We are incredibly lucky that within our local area, we have an amazing place that will offer support and kindness in our final hours of need. Many of us have first-hand experience of the wonderful work of Keech Hospice but in order to make sure it remains there we’re hoping to do our small bit to raise some money. Keech is currently only partly funded through the NHS, so it relies heavily on fund raising and donations.

 

Please dig deep so that we can help keep the wonderful work of Keech alive in the community.

 

Many thanks,

 

Tom, Steve, Sean & Billy
