The day has come! We set off from Greenwich at 1pm today and paddle our way down to Battersea. The weather looks like it might hold🤞

Lizzie Cooper is raising money for The Change Foundation
My story
You may or may not have heard of The Change Foundation. If you haven't, they're brilliant. They literally change the lives of young people through dance, cricket, rugby, and so many other sports. Have a look for yourself thechangefoundation.org.uk/
Last year, they offered us the opportunity to take part in an amazing challenge. It was so successful (we raised over £10k!) and we loved it so much, we said we'd do it again.
On 27th October, 7 double kayaks will travel 20km down the Thames, guided by professionals (poor things) and rowed/steered by complete amateurs fuelled by Percy Pigs. We start in Greenwich and finish at Battersea High Road where, if last year is anything to go by, I will be flopping out of my kayak shaking like a leaf.
Thank you for checking out my page. Making a donation is fast, easy and secure thanks to Give as you Live Donate. They'll take your donation and pass it onto The Change Foundation.
My updates
Thank you all so much for donating to such a fantastic charity!
The kayak challenge was cancelled because of the dodgy weather on Wednesday, but it's being rescheduled. I'll keep you all posted!
Lizzie xx
