The Bluebird Care Splash Squad

We are the Bluebird Care team from Reading, Wokingham, Maidenhead, Windsor, and Bracknell, and this year, we’ve decided to take on rowing for our team building exercise! With a mix of office staff and care assistants and absolutely no rowing experience, we’re jumping in for a challenge and a good laugh. Wish us luck!

Wave Walkers

Wave Walkers was set up to support anyone affected by cancer - survivors, carers, practitioners. We welcome anyone onto our boat and focus on wellbeing and friendship

Cookham Abbey Diggers

We're so lucky to have such an important archaeological dig on our doorstep here in Cookham where each summer we get to discover more information about the royal monastery that was here over 1,200 years ago. None of this would be possible without a magnificent team working very hard behind the scenes.

At this year's Cookham Regatta we'll be celebrating what has been achieved on the site next to Holy Trinity Church over the last few years, so we’ve invited some of the people who have made the dig possible to take part in the dragon boat race. 

Our team includes Professor Gabor Thomas, Father Stephen Mills, Dr Nicola Stingelin, University of Reading members of staff and students and local volunteers and supporters.

xxx We're very grateful to all the amazing local businesses that have sponsored our entry - The Inn on the Green, Cookham.com and Salt Hill V

A big thank you also to Cookham Rotary Club for organising the Regatta and always supporting so many local charities. We’re so excited about rowing down the Thames on Saturday - it’s going to be so much fun!

Do come down and say hello & find out more about the dig - this is our shared local story at  https://www.cookhamabbey.org.uk/

This Way Up!

It will be unusual for us to see which way we are going but we we will be happy if we beat the FoCAs  (Friends of Cookham Abbey)
