The Great British Paddle 2020
The Great British Paddle 2020
In less than one week, our official company adventurer and fundraiser Jordan Wylie will be heading off on another major expedition and flying the family flag (literally from his support boat) for Eton Harris and Chartercross Capital Management. The last 4 months have been very testing for us all as the world tries to come to terms with the aftermath and ongoing management of COVID-19. Although we all hope it will be business as usual soon, we must all get now used to new ways of working and also be very grateful for the things in our life that we often take for granted.
As you may know, we were supposed to be running through the 10 coldest places on the planet in 2020 as part of our fundraising mission on the Horn of Africa where together with Eton Harris and Chartercross we have been trying to inspire hope through education to child refugees in Djibouti from Yemen and Somalia respectively, all of which have been affected by war and conflict. Although Jordan will return to his polar running challenge when international air space opens fully (hopefully soon), we decided we needed a challenge closer to home to inspire those young people in the U.K. who have been locked up in thwir family houses for the last 4 months. We are delighted to bring to you, THE GREAT BRITISH PADDLE! An incredible world first and world record attempt to circumnavigate the whole of Great Britain on a Standup Paddleboard in aid of Frontline Children.
