As it is an all-female crew the charity will be putting the money raised from this towards injured service women in particular who have risked their lives on the front line. Breast Cancer is the most common cancer in the UK and the numbers of cases are rising. Breast Cancer Care is the only UK wide charity providing specialist support to those affected. The Coxless Crew are hoping to raise awareness and funds for both of these inspirational charities from their incredible adventure.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-2684\" title=\"Coxless Crew training \" src=\"https:\/\/www.tucan.travel\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/03\/unnamed-2-300x176.jpg\" alt=\"Coxless Crew training \" width=\"300\" height=\"176\" \/><\/p>\n<p>If you would like to donate towards their heroic efforts please visit their fundraising page <a href=\"http:\/\/coxlesscrew.com\/\">here<\/a>.
