We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Wetwheels has been named the official Charity of the Year for the upcoming Run Southampton Half Marathon and 10K!
This incredible partnership gives us a fantastic platform to raise vital funds and awareness for our mission. Every stride taken and every pound raised on the streets of Southampton will go directly towards providing life-changing, barrier-free powerboat experiences for disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages.
Why Your Support Matters
For many of our participants, accessing the open water is something they never thought possible. Time on the water with Wetwheels builds confidence, improves wellbeing, and offers an unparalleled sense of freedom.
“There is something very special about being on the water. For someone with a disability, being at sea offers unparalleled freedoms. Your mind and imagination fill with things that didn’t seem possible.” — Geoff Holt MBE DL, Founder of Wetwheels
By running for Wetwheels, you are helping us keep our custom-built, fully accessible boats on the water, ensuring that everyone—regardless of their impairments—can experience the joy of the ocean and even take the helm.
