Are you up to take on reigning Champions Murphy’s? We are looking for organisations, companies, who want to help us raise money for Charity, by having fun. It really is a great day, check out last year’s report.

We need teams of four people, and we want to raise at least £100 per team, we are very keen on companies joining us and last year we had:

• Murphy’s – three teams
• McVities – two teams
• Garden Studios
• Old Oak and Park Royal Development Corporation

We want more this year, we have set a target to raise over £1,600, the money we raise will be split between two local charities, the Brent Food Bank and Queens Park Rangers Community Trust. Both these charities support local people in our community. Let us make it even bigger and better, for more information call/text on 07951 770241 or email: canoeing@thesharks.org.uk.
