A Celebration of Women's Rowing at Durham

Join together with fellow DUBC athletes, alumni and supporters to celebrate the successes of Women’s rowing at Durham.

Since its genesis at Armstrong college in 1924, Women's rowing at Durham has gone from strenth to strenth, nurturing and enabling athletes to fulful their full potential. The athletes produced by the Women's programme have gone on to represent GB at the highest levels, as well as building highly successful post-rowing careers, and this dinner honours their substantial achievements.

Traditionally the London alumni dinners have taken place after HoRR, but 2024 marks the first year in which this dinner will take place after WeHoRR, after which the London dinners will alternate between the evenings of HoRR and WeHoRR.

Everyone is welcome to attend this dinner and celebrate the successes of both Durham's Women athletes and alumni as well as those of the wider club and alumni network without regard to gender.
