About
THE FULL STORY
WELCOME TO OUR ADVENTURE!
We are Simon and Steve, two passionate individuals embarking on an extraordinary expedition to foil around Great Britain, raising funds and awareness for cancer research. Our mission is to support vital research that can bring hope to countless families affected by cancer.
THE EXPEDITION
Setting off on the 1st of September, we plan to navigate the entire coastline of the UK in a clockwise direction. Our journey will start in the beautiful county of Cornwall, where we both call home. From there, we will head north up the rugged west coast, circumnavigate the top of Scotland, and then travel down the scenic east coast. Our final stretch will challenge us as we navigate the south coast against the prevailing winds to return to our starting point.
THE CHALLENGE
Foiling around Great Britain is no small feat. We expect to cover an average of approximately 100km per day, though this is highly dependent on weather conditions. To aid our progress, we have equipped our foils with Foil Drive systems, providing us with an emergency backup if we need assistance reaching the shore.
THE SUPPORT
Accompanying us will be our trusty support van, following us around the coastline. This mobile base will ensure we have the resources and backup we need to complete this challenging journey. Each night, we aim to meet up with our support van, rest, and prepare for the next day’s adventure.
JOIN US
We invite you to follow our journey, support our cause, and join us in the fight against cancer. Your donations will directly contribute to groundbreaking research and provide hope to those affected by this devastating illness.
Thank you for your support and encouragement as we undertake this incredible expedition. Together, we can make a difference.
