Jane commented; "In today’s digital world, we are all too aware of the increasing presentation in the decline of student/youth mental health, along with the ever growing strain on our primary and secondary health care service provision, it is paramount that we all endeavour to take self-care steps to help support our mental wellbeing and health. The statistics speak boldly for themselves and I am proud to support such a fantastic initiative in aid of Sport Relief, utilising the prominence and benefit that physical activity affords to support an individual’s mental health. I wish Phil and the wider Row Britannia Team all the very best."
We are delighted that Jane is supporting Row Britannia.
