sport and thereby improve their health,

happy, safe, suppor=ve, and enjoyable

run by a volunteer but we have also

able to row due to the fnancial support
we have received via grants and

SEN groups, and individuals coming to
us with physical and mental disabili=es.| |---|---|---| |Statement confirming
