The Charities
standing together
3 Inspiring Charities
The journey will hope to raise over £24,000 for 3 inspirational charities. That’s £5 per km per charity.
As individuals, Dave and Sophie have chosen a charity each to represent – RNLI and Wilderness Foundation respectively – and have jointly chosen a community charity Frontline Children.

Wilderness Foundation UK

RNLI
RNLI saves lives at sea. For 200 years, they’ve saved 143,000 lives through a 95% volunteer base operating from 238 stations around the UK and Ireland. They also deploy lifeguards to 240 beaches in the UK, keeping thousands of miles of coastline safe for everyone to go and enjoy our Island nation each and every year. To find out more about why RNLI appealed to Dave, check out “Dave’s Why” section.

Frontline Children
Whilst the first two charities have been chosen individually by Dave and Sophie, they resonate with both of them due to their shared interests and they’re thrilled to represent them both.
Part of Dave and Sophie’s vision is to celebrate the value of community and connection, and one of the examples of this is the incredible support that they have received from fellow paddler Jordan Wylie and his charity Frontline Children. Frontline inspires hope through access to education for kids in some of the most remote and challenge areas on the planet, often in conflict and war zones. The charities motto – Be The Difference that Makes the Difference – resonates with their own voyage to create something that has a long lasting impact for these 3 worthwhile charities and the spirit they cultivate. That is why they’ve decided to make Frontline Children our community charity.
