Our very good friends from Allianz are at it again. Susie and three friends are entering the world famous Rother Raft Race on 29th August, starting in Cowdray Park, Midhurst.
Please click on the link below to give them the encouragement they deserve, and take a note to bring the family to cheer them on - it's a really good day out.

We have decided in a moment of madness to take part in the Rother Raft Race on Sunday 29th August 2010. As most of you could guess, we are not keen rowers, kayakers or white water rafters. So this is going to be a real challenge for us all and we are going take part dressed as Sailor Girls....
The race starts at Cowdray Ruins, Midhurst and finishes 3.75 miles away at Lods Bridge, Selham. There are some deceptively deep areas along the way and a big stepped weir which could prove interesting.
The reason we are doing this is to raise money for The Rosemary Foundation in Petersfield.
They are a fantastic organisation that offer care to terminally ill patients, suffering not necessarily from cancer but from other chronically debilitating illnesses as well. The cost of running such facilities is unbelievable and they rely heavily on support from fundraising and donations.
So please dig deep and donate now.

The Allianz team did very well, are still raising money, Allianz have promised to double what they raise and .... they didn't fall in! How about that! Read all about it on our News and Pictures page.
