Additional Information

Gloucester Rowing Club is committed to providing opportunities for people to learn, enjoy and compete as rowers. For a number of year we have run a number of very successful introduction programs which have been recognised both regionally and nationally. In addition, we have been very actively fund raising to improve the facilities that we can offer the athletes in their development. We have a budget of £1.75 million to develop the boathouse and need to close the remaining £90000. The project will benefit individuals of all ages and backgrounds and will strengthen a Gloucestershire based sports facility with its feet firmly in the local community.
