We’re diving back in — quite literally! W R Davies is proud to announce that we’ll be taking part in the Coracle World Championships this September, right here in Shrewsbury.
After an unforgettable splash last year, our teams are gearing up for another day of paddling, laughing, and most likely getting soaked — all in support of Macmillan Cancer Support. From fancy dress to frantic river manoeuvres, the Coracle Championships are a brilliant blend of fun and fundraising, bringing people together for a cause that matters.
Location: Pengwern Boathouse, River Severn, Shrewsbury
Date: 12th September 2025
Our goal: Raise funds for Macmillan and enjoy every soggy second
Join Us in Making a Difference
In the lead-up to the big day, W R Davies staff, customers, friends, and family come together on our JustGiving page to raise as much as possible for this incredible cause. This year, our goal is to reach £1,000 and every donation counts.
Whether you're racing, cheering from the riverbank, or simply want to contribute, there’s plenty of ways to get involved. Every paddle helps us support Macmillan’s incredible work with individuals and families affected by cancer.
From everyone at W R Davies, we can’t wait to be part of this fantastic event again — see you on the water!
