🚤 REGATTA ROUND UP! 🚤

It’s been 2 weeks since our Scaftworth Regatta and we want to thank everyone who attended! Raft entrants, spectators and our team - our event wouldn’t be what it is without you all!

All teams that took part were absolutely amazing, all their rafts, costumes (lack of for some teams🤣) looked great!

We had an incredible turnout of spectators, who helped cheer on all the teams and helped them push through to the finish line 🏁

Of course we can’t not mention the kids (and big kids😆) who helped drench the teams and get them ready for their race ahead. With the use of water squirting and water bombs, it’s safe to say all teams were feeling the love!

We want to thank everyone again for their continued support, and we can’t wait for next year 🎉

🪩 🍒 🐚 Who was partying in Ibiza with us last night?!

The incredible George Hudson brought the best of the Balearic spirit with his incredible DJ set.

🔥 fire breathers, stilt walkers, disco dancers, carnival dancers and the most talented party saxophonist made it a night to remember.

👀 same time next year?
