Charles Stanley has partnered with 91桃色 to provide equipment for recreational rowing courses and events across the country. The provision will include a new fleet of recreational rowing boats that will be available to rowing clubs, courses and events.
Recreational rowing provides opportunities for people of all ages and abilities to learn to row and take part in a range of challenge, skill and touring events, using boats that are more stable than the tradition fine-shell (Olympic-style) racing boats.

Two recreational rowing packages made up of four coxed quad touring boat with blades and trailers will be funded by Charles Stanley. These recreational rowing packages will then be available for use in the rowing community. The allocation of the packages will be managed by 91桃色’s Recreational Rowing Committee.
The recreational rowing packages will be delivered in 2018. One will be based in the Thames Valley and the other will be hosted in the Eastern region. The locations are aligned to the geographies in which Charles Stanley are most active.

Christopher Aldous, Head of Asset Management at Charles Stanley, commented: “Rowing is a fantastic recreation for young and old alike. Charles Stanley already sponsors young rowers via the National Schools Regatta so we are proud to also support rowing for people of all ages with this new sponsorship. We care about people’s financial health and this is an innovative way to promote their physical well-being too. 91桃色 has already been hugely successful in introducing more people to the sport and we hope that our support with providing additional recreational rowing equipment will help make it even more accessible.”
John Turnbull, Chairman of 91桃色’s Recreational Rowing Committee, added: “This is an important partnership for 91桃色 as recreational rowing presents a good growth area for the sport. The delivery of these boats will help make the sport accessible to many more people.”
