FULHAM REACH BOAT CLUB LTD. Details
Our charity was born out of an agreement between the developers, St. George, and the London Borough of Hammersmith & Fulham. As part of a Section 106 planning agreement, a boat club was created within the Fulham Reach development. Construction finished in Spring 2014 and Fulham Reach Boat Club opened it's doors in October that same year.The vision for our charity is a simple one, to unlock the potential of young people through rowing. We believe in a world that gives every young person fair access to the same opportunities, allowing them to realise their full potential. On the water, Fulham Reach's coaches use four key aspects of rowing that help develop future life skills:Teamwork – Showing students how to work with others in a unique team environment and "pull together'' in order to achieve a common goal, a lesson learned almost subliminally in rowing, the ultimate team sport Focus – Teaching the students determination, perseverance and focus as they take part in a physically, mentally and technically demanding activity Confidence – Having fun in a very different environment to that which they are used to, on a living river building resilience to deal with the forces of nature, and helping teenagers to escape from the everyday pressures facing them todayAmbition– Enabling students who previously considered themselves not-sporty (usually because they lack a talent for traditional ball games) to participate in a unique leisure activity and possibly discover an athleticism that they did not know they possessed.
