My daughter is 14 years old and absolutely passionate about kayaking. She trains hard, competes regularly, and has already achieved incredible results:

2nd place – U14 Girls K1 at the UK National Marathon Championships

1st place – U14 Girls K2 at the same championships

She has also competed at both the UK Sprint and Marathon Nationals, and this September she has been selected to represent the UK at the French Nationals – a huge honour and opportunity at her age.

Unfortunately, we have faced a couple of disasters this year:

Her blue kayak began leaking and is no longer race-fit.

The replacement kayak was recently damaged in an accident, with the stern destroyed.

This makes it even more urgent for us to secure a new competition-standard boat so she can continue training and racing at the level required.

What we’re asking for:

Support towards the purchase of a new competition-standard kayak and racing gear.

If you know anyone in the Surrey area who could carry out a reliable repair on her current boat, please do get in touch — that kind of help would mean the world to us as well.

Kayaks and racing equipment are expensive, but every little bit helps. All funds raised will go directly towards her equipment and competition costs, supporting her dream as a young athlete representing her club and her country.

Thank you so much for any donation, share, or lead on a possible repair. Your support will help keep her on the water and chasing her dream!
