The Canoeists’ Everest
Two of our UK supporters, Rob Stainsby and Nardos Abraham from Ham and Staines embarked on an exciting event in April this year to raise funds for and awareness of The African Pulse.
They bravely participated in the 2007 Easter Devizes to Westminster International Canoe Race which starts in the quiet town of Devizes in Wiltshire and finishes 125 miles later at Westminster Bridge, opposite the Houses of Parliament in London. It is the longest non-stop canoe race in the world and is often called ‘the canoeists’ Everest! Rob and Nardos raised £1,885 for the African Pulse – thank you guys!
