Henry Cheape had never rowed before when signing up for the World’s Toughest Row – a gruelling 3,000 mile challenge to row across the Atlantic. Months of training led him to the December 2023 start line in the Canary Islands – his boat, Polly Anne loaded with food that Henry had researched and sourced from suppliers as close as possible to his home in St Andrews. Forty-nine days later – and more than £100,000 raised for his chosen charities – he rowed PollyAnne into Antigua’s English Harbour, becoming the fastest Scot to row the Atlantic solo.
Join Henry – in conversation with esteemed journalist and author, Magnus Linklater – as they talk about his record-breaking challenge that attracted intrigued ‘dot watchers’ from around the world.
The evening will include a Q&A: audience members are encouraged to submit questions for Henry ahead of the event.
