Letter to Prime Minister
The Rt Hon Boris Johnson The Prime Minister 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA 23rd September 2020 Dear Prime Minister, A Green Recovery from the COVID-19 Pandemic If it were not for the COVID-19 pandemic, the world’s hearts and minds would have been captured this summer by the Tokyo Olympic and Paralympic Games: events that have "Passing on Legacy for the Future” as part of their core mission. Yet the years where that Legacy will unfold are under acute threat from climate change. In February this year, you confirmed that "there can be no greater responsibility than protecting our planet, and no mission that a Global Britain is prouder to serve”. With the COP26 and G7 presidencies next year, the UK has a golden opportunity to show international leadership on the most important issue facing humankind. We can sit timidly in the pack, pretending that we have no role to play in the unfolding race. Or, like the athletes we would have watched this summer, we can race to win. We urge your Government to act consistently with the recognised need for “urgent action”, by developing a truly Green approach to recovery from the pandemic. In championing this approach, the UK can take confidence from the last months, which have demonstrated the incredible capacity our society has to make huge alterations from “business as usual” in order to protect one another. The economic benefits of pursuing a Green recovery have also received emphatic endorsement from the Committee on Climate Change, the present and former Governors of the Bank of England, and research from Oxford University.

News Reviews
NEWSLETTER – DECEMBER 2017 News reviews 2017 World Rowing Award winners revealed The first World Rowing Indoor Championships announced Azou and Janssen head World Rowing’s top 10 list for 2017 A French man and a Dutch woman have taken the top spots in World Rowing’s Top 10 rowers for 2017. Jeremie Azou is the top male and Inge Janssen the top female in a list that includes new rowers who have taken over in the sport following a number of post- Olympic retirements. The indoor rowing appeal and British Rowing Rowers have long embraced – or rather endured – a close relationship to this most intense of exercise machines. But indoor rowing machines are no longer just for rowers cross training. New research from British Rowing reveals that on average there are three indoor rowing machines at every gym across Great Britain and concrete steps are being taken to increase that number. How South Africa is making their boats go faster The simple aim of a rowing coaching is to make boats go faster and South Africa’s national squad programme is certainly picking up speed. At the Olympic level, the first South African boat to compete was the men’s eight in Barcelona in 1992. Twelve years later in Athens, South Africa won its first medal, bronze in the men’s pair. London 2012 saw South Africa win its first gold, in the men’s lightweight four. This success was built on in Rio, with five boats qualifying, all making finals and the men’s pair winning silver. World Rowing’s 2017 Coaches Conference on 7-8 December in London, focused on the theme of using technology and data to make boats go faster.
