After the success of last year’s event which raised £21,000, Praxis' partnership with Macmillan Cancer Support Jersey’s annual Rowathon returns for the fourth consecutive time in 2024.
Praxis is excited to be sponsoring the 2024 event, with organisers hoping to attract 50 teams of six to row on indoor rowing machines on 6 April. The local charity is asking corporates, community groups and businesses alike to ‘pull together’ and support islanders affected by cancer for the community fundraising staple on Saturday 6 April at The Radisson Blu Waterfront Hotel.
Teams comprising of six people will row the equivalent distance of Jersey to Sark (30,000m) on an indoor rowing machine, with a leaderboard tracking their progress. This year – the charity will be awarding the fastest teams in their relative business sectors’ prizes, to spur on friendly competition between Jersey-based companies and groups alike.
Daniel Reynolds, Praxis’ Managing Director in Jersey said: 'This event is such an important fundraiser for our community and I’m delighted that we’re able to partner with Macmillan Jersey for the fourth consecutive year.'
