Crew Supporter (Sponsorship)

To take part in this incredible opportunity I have a task ahead of me which could be seen as daunting as the race itself.   I need to secure financial sponsorship to enable me to turn my dream into reality.

The Clipper Race has its own name for the sponsorship of crew members by companies, organisations or individuals  which is ‘Crew Supporter’.

I need to raise £50,000 to cover the costs of being part of the race (this includes my training, race fees, insurance and kit).  This is a great challenge and I am doing all that I can to help raise the funds.

I am looking for companies, organisations and individuals who are willing to support me in my dream by becoming a Crew Supporter. Any donation would be gratefully received and help me towards my target.  I need £1.25 per mile of the race so maybe think about how many miles you could support me for?
