THE CONCEPT
The challenge will involve a small group of experienced sailors combined with a crew of forty two selected members of the public, all of whom have had a very personal relationship with breast cancer. The team will depart from London and embark on a round the world sailing challenge in order to raise funds for, and global awareness of, breast cancer.
The gruelling experience of an ocean voyage in excess of 30,000 miles is a massive challenge for anybody. Our goal through our selected team is to bring awareness of breast cancer, both in the UK and internationally, to the forefront. Having dealt with breast cancer our crew members will use the challenging experience of sailing an ocean going racing yacht, visiting a carefully programmed selection of stopovers at which they will act as ambassadors to raise funds and awareness, not only of breast cancer but also of the fact that it can be beaten.
