The Dragon Boat Challenge in partnership with Building Magazine returned for 2024 raising donations for industry charity CRASH – helping homelessness charities and hospices with vital construction projects.

Teams took to the London Surrey Docks on the 23rd May for this year’s edition with a fantastic £27,000 raised overall.

Building, Assemble Media Group’s flagship editorial platform, is a long-standing partner with CRASH that supports advertising for the event through its media channels. Promotional output helped contribute £9,117 to the total amount collected for 2024.

It was brilliant to have another afternoon filled with sunshine, seeing a few teams opting for a customary involuntary/voluntary swim and a series of coveted raffle prizes awarded.

We hope to see everyone return for the 25th anniversary of the event next year.
