Devizes to Westminster Canoe Race
A very well done to PO Chris Martin-Jones and PO Chris Edge for taking part in the Devizes to Westminster canoe race, to raise funds for the unit.
They started just after 0700 on Saturday 11 April.
They managed to achieve 79 miles before being beaten by exhaustion.
Look out for PO Sam Brophy & PO Chris Martin-Jones cycling from John O'Groats to Landsend in 2011 to raise more funds and other events planned later on this year.
