The 8th OSCAR Dragon Boat Race will take place on Friday 15th September 2023 in London, and we’d love for you to be a part of it.
About the OSCAR Dragon Boat Race
This annual event has already raised over £900,000 towards the total raised by the OSCAR Campaign which now exceeds £2.25m and which funds essential research and treatment for children with leukaemia and related diseases at Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children.
25 teams compete against one other and the top six teams battle it out in a final. There is a bar, food, quayside games and activities and a DJ to get everyone in the mood. It’s an excellent networking event and good fun. Most importantly, no training is required for those who want to race.
