Racing Around the World to Support Youth & the Planet

Donation protected
I am currently racing around the world in the Clipper Round the World Race as a crew member of Team UNICEF.

This is one of the most physically and mentally demanding endurance events in the world. It is not symbolic, recreational, or hypothetical. It is happening now, offshore, in real conditions, with real risk and real cost.

I am asking for support to fund the final legs of the race from Australia back to the United Kingdom.

This final stretch crosses some of the most challenging oceans on the planet. Completing it safely requires continued funding for race fees, offshore safety equipment, food and logistics, insurance, and medical compliance. These are non-negotiable costs.

I did not come into this race with a background in professional sailing. I came into it with a belief that adventure can be used as a platform for good—and a willingness to learn, endure, and commit fully.

I am racing as part of Team UNICEF because I believe deeply in their mission: creating opportunity, safety, and a healthy environment for the next generation. This race gives that mission global visibility in places that traditional campaigns rarely reach.

To date, I have:

Sailed more than 15,000 nautical miles

Crossed the Atlantic Ocean twice

Completed multiple race legs under extreme offshore conditions

Raised significant funds toward this effort while actively racing

I am proud of what has been accomplished so far. I am equally clear about what remains.

The remainder of this race—from Australia back to the UK—requires sustained financial support. Every contribution directly helps keep this mission moving forward, leg by leg, mile by mile.

If you believe in youth opportunity, environmental responsibility, and the power of sport to reach beyond borders, I invite you to support this final stage.

Thank you for helping make the rest of this journey possible.
