Shadowfax Racing is a volunteer-based charity and as such, we depend on the generous financial and in-kind donations of various people and organisations,
Shadowfax racing spends the money we raise on funding our trainees transport and food costs for the program, as wells as entering races and keeping all the boats and kit up to scratch. In particular all the boats involved in the program are fully coded every three years.
We fundraise through a combination of private donations, events and grants.

The 2018 Black Tie Ball ... took place on Saturday 10th November at The Royal Thames Yacht Club, Knightsbridge, London. It proved to be another fun and successful event. We'll soon be in a position to announce how much was raised to support the Charity for the 2019 programmes. Thanks to everyone that came along and for your very generous bids in the auction. We hope you had as much fun as we did!

The Annual Black Tie Ball
The charity organises an annual ‘fundraising ball’. Year 1 (2015) raised over £8000, Year 2 (2016) raised over £6000 and our third ball in October 2017 raised £12,000. Year 2018 ... soon to be announced. In 2018 the ball was once again held at the Royal Thames Yacht Club and had a Masquerade theme. The ever-popular auction was hosted by Dingo with some amazing donated lots, including F1 Paddock tickets, Warren Smith skiing holidays and much more! |
