Fundraising
More information about using the machine to raise money, including a 'How To' Framework, can be found in the Fundraising section of the main site. Below are case studies of schools that have successfully used indoor rowing to raise much needed funds.
- Wellfield Community School Rowing Project
"One of the key parts of my job (definitely the most rewarding part) is giving young people opportunities to experience things and do things that they probably would never get a chance to do." - Farnborough School
"Many ideas were considered before they arrived at the plan of ten teams of ten indoor rowers competing in relay over 35,000m, the distance from Dover to Calais." - Monmouth Comprehensive School Boat Club's 24hr World Record Row
"Now their 24 hour charitable exploits on an Indoor Rower has been verified by the Guinness Book of Records. The marathon event in March raised cash for the Boat Club and more than £6,000 for the Charitable Trust set up by five times Olympic gold medalist, Steve Redgrave." - Frodsham Science and Technology College
- Edgbaston High School for Girls
"Having been in teaching for 35 years I can honestly say I have never experienced a day like it! The sense of purpose and community the project engendered was incredible."
