In July 2022, the Kayak 4 Heroes team completed their iconic ‘World First’ expedition by becoming the first adaptive team (containing individuals with injuries/disabilities) to kayak from Land’s End in Cornwall to John O’ Groats in Scotland. The team faced an incredibly testing journey of over 1,400 kilometres – across some of the toughest coastal waters in Europe.

Setting off from Land’s End on the 19^th June 2021, the team worked together to overcome their respective injuries and disabilities to successfully complete their iconic record-breaking challenge in just 26 days!

Beyond the gruelling physical challenge itself, the team managed to raise an amazing £110,000 for a charity close to their hearts – the Armed Forces Para-Snowsport Team (AFPST). In addition, it was the ambition of the team that their expedition would help inspire the next generation of adaptive adventures from across the UK.
