About FaceBoat

In order to raise such a large sum of money for Breast Cancer Care, we have decided to take all our supporters with us on our journey. These days sadly pretty much everyone knows someone who has been touched by Breast Cancer, and therefore appreciates the devastating impact the disease can have. So we welcome everyone who would like to support us and Breast Cancer Care, and invite you all to jump on board!

Jump on board

Let's set another record - see how many people we can get onboard our 29 foot boat! Just think you can get across the Indian Ocean on a rowing boat - maybe even be part of a world record - without even having to lift an oar! Although with 25,004 people on a 29 foot boat it could get cosy...

Obviously we would love it if you can afford to make a donation when you upload your photo (we are rowing 3,500 miles after all!), as the more we raise, the more Breast Cancer Care can put towards their fantastic work. But we understand if you are not able to donate, and fully appreciate your moral support all the same. Just upload your photo, and join us on our epic voyage!

Tell your friends

We want to cover any spare space we have on the hull with photos of all of you – it will make such a difference to our morale out there. So when you uploaded your photo, please forward the link to this page onto everyone you know, to help us reach as many people as possible and set a record for the most people on one rowing boat!

Project costs

Because rowing across the Indian Ocean is quite an expensive business, we need some help in covering our project costs. We hope to cover the costs through sponsorship from individuals and companies that want to financially support us so that we can give every penny from FaceBoat directly to the charities. We currently do not have sufficient sponsors to cover the project costs in full, so until we do, we will take 40p in every pound from FaceBoat and put it towards the cost of the project. Once the costs are covered we will obviously give 100% of each donation directly to charity, and as we hope that full project costs will be covered, we will then give all those 20ps that we ringfenced for project costs back to the charities as well.

Gift Aid

You will see that there is a gift aid box to tick if you are a UK tax payer. Please make sure you do tick this if applicable as the charities will then be able to claim gift aid on all donations.

Just giving

If you would like to support us but don't like the idea of uploading a photo, please donate directly to Breast Cancer Care through our just giving page.
