UK Power Networks LPN taking part in the DofE Dragon Boat Race 2026
UK Power Networks LPN Team – Dragon Boat Race 2026
In September 2026, the UK Power Networks LPN team will be taking to the water to compete in a Dragon Boat Race in support of the Duke of Edinburgh’s Award (DofE) charity.
Our team is proud to be raising money for a cause that helps young people build confidence, resilience, teamwork, and life skills through incredible opportunities and challenges. The DofE charity continues to make a real difference to thousands of young people across the UK, helping them unlock their potential regardless of background or circumstance.
As part of this exciting event, our crew will be training hard, working together, and racing against other teams — all while raising as much money as possible for this fantastic charity.
Every donation, big or small, will help support the DofE’s vital work and give more young people the chance to develop skills for life and work, improve their wellbeing, and achieve their goals.
We would really appreciate your support.
Thank you for helping us make a difference and cheering on the UK Power Networks LPN team as we paddle our way through the challenge!
