Nick Sankey: The children of Pilgrims Way Primary School in Canterbury have raised £1,200 by rowing 50,000 metres on four Concept2 Indoor Rowers. The machines were purchased with a National Lottery Awards For All grant. The reception children rowed a 500-metre race with up to year 6 children racing 2500 metres over two days at the start of July. The grant also funded adaptive seats for three of the machines to allow for the full participation of a number of physically disabled children who attend the school.The money raised will go to the Esther Benjamins Trust, the leading charity working exclusively with Nepali Children. Their flagship project aims to repatriate and rehabilitate all Nepali children trafficked and exploited in Indian circuses.Tetley GB kindly donated a portable DVD player and MP3 player to the highest fundraisers. CDs from HMV were also given out while Concept2 kindly donated t-shirts and water bottles for children who tried particularly hard with the rowing itself.
