The raft race is great fun and the whole community looks forward to it...

...but it is also a great way of raising funds for the Portishead Lifeboat and various other local charities and community groups....

Whilst the Lifeboat is a major beneficiary of the raft race funds (as it has traditionally been a Lifeboat event), we are now also supporting other local charities with funds raised by the Raft Race.

If your charity or community group would like to benefit from the raft race, please get in touch using the "Contact Us" page.

The traditional organiser of the raft race is The Portishead Lifeboat. You can find out more about them by clicking on their logo...
