The Great River Race: 25th September 2010

A 21 mile rowing marathon from London's Docklands to Ham, Richmond upon Thames

The 2010 Great River Race will see over 300 competitor craft racing upstream from London Docklands to Ham Landings in Richmond. Northern Exposure Rescue have again been asked by the Great River Race organising committee to provide Race Safety Officers and organise the Safety Fleet.

For this event to take place safely we need YOUR help.

The Great River Race needs around 40 Safety Boats and crews spread along the race course to provide marshalling and safety cover for the 300+ competitors. The Great River Race will cover the costs of towing the boat to the event and pay for all boat fuel used while at the event.
