Ross Rowing Club , Iron Fund (Mar 2023)

You have been fundamental to the success of the MARS (mixed ability rowers) programme at Ross Rowing Club.

 

I wanted to share some unsolicited feedback from a young woman, Marsaili Heatley who uses a wheelchair, who came to us for a social event, had a chat with some of the MARS gang, came back on Sunday and ended up rowing.   She sent me this message shortly afterwards.

“Thank you so much for helping me believe that I can. So often people take one look at me and all they see is the visible and presume I can’t… What you have set up is something truly wonderful, so liberating, so enabling, so freeing – and the rowing club should be extraordinarily proud of it.”

 

We had nine new people added to seven existing regulars last Sunday.   Please enjoy how much impact your support has given to these people and many more.
