IndiRow23 & MollyOlly

In May 32 Allan Huntly, one of our patients, and his cuddly lion cub Olly, set off on a courageous journey rowing across the Indian Ocean from Perth, Australia to Mauritius as part of the Indirow23 team to raise funds and awareness for Parkinson's disease research.

To help Allan on his journey, we provided him with Oakley and Under Armour sunglasses to protect his eyes from the harsh sun and keep him rowing safely.

After a whopping 69 days of unsupported rowing, Allan and the rest of the IndiRow23 crew arrived in Mauritius! We are so impressed and proud to have supported Allan and loved seeing the pictures of him arriving, looking slightly hairier than when he departed, but still looking super cool in his shades! 😎

The adorable Olly represents Molly Ollys Wishes Charity who provide wishes to children with life threatening illnesses for a gift, equipment or an experience to help them cope through their dark days. They've also developed this therapeutic toy lion called Olly The Brave which is donated free of charge to each child. Olly has his own line and also has a detachable mane that helps to explain and normalise the hair-loss that comes with many types of chemotherapy.

Blink is incredibly proud to have donated to both charities. Well done and congratulations from the team at Blink, Bridge of Allan
