Help us Row across the Atlantic for 3 amazing Charities!

Donation protected
Help us set a WORLD RECORD - Youngest team of five to row across the Atlantic Ocean - in aid of Mental Health, Dementia, and Down's Syndrome!

Dear friends, family, and generous supporters,

We are Secondoary Fun, a team of five passionate and determined rowers embarking on an extraordinary journey across the Atlantic Ocean. Our mission is not just about conquering the waves but also about raising vital funds for three incredible charities: Mind, Dementia Adventure, and T-21. Each of these organisations holds a special place in our hearts, and we need your help to make a difference.

Our Story
Our team, based across the UK and Singapore, is united by a shared commitment to supporting mental health, dementia care, and opportunities for young adults with Down's Syndrome. We have seen first hand the impact these challenges can have on individuals and their families, and we are determined to do our part to help.

The Challenge
Rowing across the Atlantic is a monumental challenge that tests our physical endurance and mental resilience. We'll be rowing 3,000 miles from La Gomera in the Canary Islands to Antigua in the Caribbean. There will even be a period of time where we will be closer to satellites in space than we will be to civilisation! We'll face 30-foot waves and the immense isolation of the open sea. Despite these challenges, we are motivated by a greater purpose: to support the incredible work of Mind, Dementia Adventure, and T-21.

Why This Fundraiser Matters
  • Mind: Provides crucial support for individuals struggling with mental health issues, offering resources and a lifeline for those in need.
  • Dementia Adventure: Helps people with dementia stay connected to the outdoors, improving their quality of life through meaningful activities and experiences.
  • T-21: A local Stamford charity running a cafe that offers job opportunities and activities for young adults with Down's Syndrome, fostering inclusion and empowerment.

How the Funds Will Be Used
We aim to raise £125,000 to support these three vital charities and their life-changing work. Here's the breakdown of our fundraising goal:
  • £25,000 from Individuals
  • £100,000 from Corporate Sponsors

Our Personal Connection
Each member of Secondoary Fun has a personal connection to these causes. Whether it’s seeing a loved one struggle with mental health, watching a family member cope with dementia, or witnessing the joy and challenges faced by young adults with Down's Syndrome, these experiences fuel our determination.

THANK YOU
We deeply appreciate your support as we take on this epic journey. Your donations will not only help us achieve our fundraising goal but also provide hope, support, and opportunities for those in need. Whether you can contribute financially or help spread the word about our campaign, your involvement means the world to us.

Together, we can row across the Atlantic and make a profound impact on the lives of many. Thank you for being part of our mission!
