Also to Andy & the Sailing Grace crew.** The Story A team of youth sailors from Rudyard Lake Sailing Club has set themselves the challenge to sail across the English Channel in a 15-foot sailing boat to raise funds for a special charity close to their hearts, Maggie’s Manchester. In the grounds of The Christie Hospital, Maggie’s is a cancer support charity that helps not just people with cancer, but also their loved ones too. The Challenge In September 2019, a team of youth sailors, aged 16 to 27, from Rudyard Lake SC plans to sail a 15-foot dinghy across the English Channel. Starting from Rye and finishing in Boulogne, the team of six will be supported by a mother ship and support RIB. The route is approximately 45 miles, crossing times can vary depending on conditions. The team is raising funds for Maggie’s, an incredible charity that offers free practical, emotional and social support to people with cancer and their families and friends. No appointments or referrals are needed at Maggie’s it’s all about just coming in and finding help with the money worries, work problems and emotional challenges that cancer brings. Read more about the great work they do below. The Idea The thought of doing this Challenge was initiated following the donation of a new Hartley 15 sailing dinghy to the youth section (Jybaz) of Rudyard Lake Sailing Club by a local company, ABC Solutions. This boat is part of the sailing club’s drive to modernise its training fleet, to continue its growth, improve the availability of training for young people and support the current group of sailors. The team are now very excited to announce boohoo Group as the sponsor for the challenge. Rudyard Lake is a place visited regularly by the Co-Founder of The boohoo Group Carol Kane. When she heard about the Youth Sailing Club’s mission to raise money for the amazing Manchester based charity Maggie’s Centre, she was very keen to give them both boohoo’s and her own personal support. ‘I’m delighted to be able to support the crew in their endeavour to sail across the English Channel. The team at the Rudyard Lake Sailing Club do great work, especially with their youth sailors and hope we can help to raise awareness and fund for this fantastic charity, Maggie’s Centre.’ Carol Kane – Co-Founder of The boohoo Group
