I did my Learn To Row course in Spring 2023 because I wanted another way to enjoy being out on the water - I began with no intentions of racing, yet I am about to begin my second regatta season in 2025 which is a testament to the addictive nature of rowing! The land training sessions are always satisfying (if brutal!) and I have had many amazing water sessions, from rowing alongside seals, to sunrises and sunsets, to rowing 21 miles across Loch Ness. But it is the community that Worthing Rowing Club actively fosters that makes it so special and joyful.

I signed up to the Learn2Row course in 2018 because I'd just moved to the area and wanted to make friends whilst keeping fit. Since then, I've won regional championships and a national medal. Joining the club is one of the best things I've done in my life. The friendly, community spirit here is incredible, everyone is welcome at training and Thursday dinners including my dog Maisie!
