Sponsorship
Proudly investing in teamwork for 2023
Our goal is to help our customers take control of their financial future. That means putting the time in now and pulling together to achieve success down the line. We look for the same qualities in our partnerships. That is why we are proud to sponsor the 2023 Lightweight Boat Races.
The Oxford and Cambridge crews are committed to working hard towards successful futures in and out of the boat. It is not just about crossing the finish line now but how they get there and what they do afterwards.
These values reflect our commitment to helping you confidently invest your finances to make you fit for the future.
Lightweight Boat Races 2023
The Lightweight Boat Race, between the universities of Oxford and Cambridge was founded in 1975 by Richard Bates of St. John's College, Cambridge and raced over 2000 meters in Henley on Thames until 2018. For the first time, on 23rd March 2019 the race was held on the Tideway in London over the same Championship Course as the open weight University Boat Races.
The Lightweight Women's Boat Race joined the Henley Boat Races in 1984 and raced there until 2019 before joining the men on the Tideway in 2020.
The 2023 Lightweight Boat Races will be held on the Tideway on Monday 20th March. The women's race will start at 10:20am, with the men’s race following at 11:30am.

“Throughout our partnership, we have shared and been inspired by common themes of hard work, teamwork and going the extra mile. Huge kudos goes to all the crews for their commitment on and off the water. We’re excited for the 2023 races and may the best team win.”
