🌊🚣♂️ We at Denford are immensely proud of Tom Waddington, a fellow West Yorkshire native, as he embarks on the extraordinary challenge of rowing solo across the North Atlantic! 🌍🔥 This 2,000-mile journey, often referred to as one of the most dangerous rows in the world, has seen Tom battling relentless waves, harsh weather, and isolation—all while rowing 12+ hours a day. This incredible challenge isn’t just a testament to physical endurance; Tom is also raising £50,000 for Mind, a charity dedicated to mental health. His mission reflects the importance of mental resilience and determination—values we deeply respect and strive to instil in the next generation. Please consider donating to help Tom reach his goal and support this vital cause. Every contribution helps bring him closer to his finish line—and making a meaningful impact. Tom, the entire Denford team is cheering you on every mile of the way! 🚀 #RowingTheAtlantic #DenfordLtd #TomWaddington #WestYorkshire #Innovation #MentalHealthAwareness #Resilience #ChasingDreams #NeverGiveUp
