End of an Era

We regret to announce that the South West Rowability Project will cease to exist in its current form on the 31st March 2013 due to the funding being withdrawn. We are currently looking at ways in which we can continue to support disability rowing across Devon.

Thanks to successful campaigning by Katy Wedgwood (Plymouth SEN school sport co-ordinator) the Youth Sport Trust have stepped in with temporary funding to allow the work we do to continue in schools in Plymouth and the surrounding areas up to the end of the school year at the end of July 2013.

We are investigating viable avenues that will allow the disability rowing for adults to continue, but this work has been suspended in the meantime.

Thank you to everyone who has supported the programme over the past 4 years. We hope that you will continue to enjoy the sport of rowing.
