We are incredibly excited to announce that Chris Farrell, Head of Community at British Rowing, is going to be running The London Marathon in aid of All Aboard Youth Rowing this April!

Chris is a great supporter of what we do, and the impact it has on our local community so we couldn’t be more delighted that he’s doing this for us.

We can’t wait to see Chris’ progress as he starts training in earnest this month, and of course to cheer him on in April.

If you would like to support Chris’s efforts, which in tun massively supports us, please donate what you can right here!

OARSOME support from Bennett Briegal

Specialist law firm Bennett Briegal LLP has always been a staunch supporter of local community initiatives and in 2022 became the first corporate sponsor of All Aboard Youth Rowing. This Charity gives disadvantaged young people access to the sport of rowing with the aim of positively changing their lives.

Partner Mark Briegal has been rowing, coaching rowing and umpiring for many years and is a lover of the sport. He has always been keen to make rowing more widely available as it can (incorrectly) be perceived as elitist, but at a club level certainly is not. Warrington Rowing Club, where All Aboard Youth Rowing started in 2016, is far removed from most people’s perceptions of what a rowing club might be, yet has produced Olympic champions.

Bennett Briegal has renewed its generous sponsorship to the Charity which now runs its school engagement programmes from rowing clubs in Warrington, Birkenhead, Salford, Runcorn, Northwich and Leek.

All Aboard Youth Rowing provides weekly rowing sessions for pupils from schools across the North West. It works with over 40 state secondary schools. 90% of the beneficiaries are Pupil Premium recipients and the results have been nothing short of incredible.

The sponsorship will see Bennett Briegal branded on various activities at the Charity as well as membership to the new business to business networking forum called the “Oarsome Club”.
