Fuel their dreams! Help raise £2,000 to send our junior rowers to Portugal for vital training ahead of next summer’s season
We are Bedford Rowing Club Junior Rowing Squad. We are a bunch of 13–18-year-olds from local state schools who have fallen in love with the sport of rowing who have ambitions to win both locally and at a national level. Our Junior Squad is one of the most successful in the region regularly winning events locally, regionally and nationally. Past squad athletes have gone on to be crowned Junior and European World Champions, with one of them hoping to race in LA at the 2028 Olympics.
Our annual training camp in Portugal is a game-changer. It gives us a full week to train intensively, build fitness, sharpen technique, and strengthen our teamwork. But more than that, it brings us together as a tight-knit, supportive community - one that lifts each other up on and off the water.
Rowing is an incredible sport, but it comes with high costs - from equipment and kit to travel and coaching. These are usually covered by our families, but we want to ease that burden. That’s why we’re asking for your help.
Every donation will go directly toward:
Your support will make this opportunity possible for all of us - regardless of background.
Rowing is more than a sport - it’s a lifelong foundation. It teaches discipline, resilience, teamwork, and leadership. It supports mental and physical health. And it gives young people a place to belong.
By supporting us, you’re not just funding a trip - you’re investing in the future of young athletes and helping build a stronger, healthier community.
We need your support to reach our £2,000 goal. Here’s how you can get involved:
