Changing Tides: From Adversity to Adventure

From adversity to adventure: two extraordinary individuals, transforming second chances into new beginnings. One ex-prison officer and one ex-offender will demonstrate the importance of granting everyone a “second chance” and the significance of rehabilitation by rowing the Atlantic together and raising money for life changing charities.

Sean and James' chosen charities are Care after Combat and The Samaritans, and they are committed to raising vital funds for these causes. This GoFundMe will enable Team Changing Tides to take on this mission with all excess donations going directly to the two charities below.

- Care after Combat ensures that no veteran faces their challenges alone, helping them to rebuild their lives with dignity and pride. Care after Combat is dedicated to supporting British Armed Forces personnel and their families, including those who are involved in the justice system.

- The Samaritans provides emotional support to anyone in emotional distress, struggling to cope or at risk of suicide. Samaritans receives a call for help every 10 seconds, and every pound raised will help them be there for more people who are struggling to cope.
