The journey to get to the start line can be as difficult as the actual row itself and with as many challenges. The work that goes into preparing and funding the event is often the biggest obstacle to overcome and would simply not be possible without the help and support of our sponsors.
We have been extremely fortunate to have found companies and individuals who share our passion and can see the positive impact that the row will have on the parkinson’s community
Rowing an ocean probably costs a lot more than you think and these sponsors have dug deep to provide the funding we need to buy the equipment we could not beg, borrow or steal from suppliers and manufacturers.
(Don’t worry, we didn’t actually steal anything.)

“Supporting Billy and the Indian Ocean Row is having a very positive impact on our business. A more committed, able, determined bunch of individuals would be hard to find. It is a privilege to be part of a project that has such far reaching potential to help those living with Parkinsons disease.”
Our product sponsors have provided us with equipment and products that they either manufacture themselves or are suppliers of. There are a lot of specialist pieces of kit needed to cross an ocean and their contributions have helped massively to bring down the costs of putting the project together.
Our services sponsors are the boys, girls and companies who have given their time and skills to making the Indian Ocean Row 2018 a success.
This challenge has the potential to have a huge, positive impact for those who have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease.
To get to the starting line, the team are relying on the help of product and financial partners. The opportunities for sponsors from a branding and awareness standpoint are enormous.
