PEOPLE in the South West are being challenged to row a marathon in March as part of an oar-some fundraising effort for Cancer Research UK.
In partnership with the renowned Oxford & Cambridge Boat Race, now known as The Cancer Research UK Boat Race, the charity is encouraging people to go the distance and cover 26.2 miles in stages or in one go, anytime in March.
A woman from Devon is taking on a 100k walk for Blind Veterans UK, the national charity for vision-impaired ex-Service men and women, and is calling on others to join her.
Cindy Willcocks, 38 and from Plymouth, decided to sign up for the Blind Veterans UK 100k London to Brighton challenge after her friend Nigel Evans encouraged her to join him.
