Dragon Boat Race at Ipswich Waterfront
we will run a stall with tombola and games
Brave Futures Dragon Boat Race returns to Ipswich Waterfront, it’s bigger and better! It’s colourful, it’s fun and we want to make a splash! (figuratively speaking)
Their aim is for 40 boats to take part this year, where they will take part in heats culminating in a grand finale! Bringing entertainment and festivities to the quay.
The money raised will go towards their vital specialist support service, supporting children in Suffolk. The waiting list continues to grow, the rate of disclosures in is at an all time high and we want to be there for each and every child that has been a victim of sexual abuse. This is where we need you to sign up to our Dragon boat because it’s not just the best team building event, our children urgently need your support.
No experience required you will be given all the support you need, you just need 10 paddlers and 1 drummer and you are good to go!
This event has been postponed until 27th September due to bad weather.
