FORCE HORIZON X JET

JET have been incredible to us from day one!

We came to them with this insane dream of rowing across the Atlantic in order to raise as much money as we could. At the time we thought we had a strong enough ‘Why’ to motivate us throughout this project, but as we spent more time in the company of JET, we both realised how our ‘Why’ became stronger.

Had JET been around when we were at school, we both would have qualified for the help they provide. We now feel passionately about helping those young people who find themselves facing challenge, and want to be an example of determination & resilience.

MY WHY

“Flipping the switch from Survive to Thrive”

What People Are Saying

Overcoming adversity, teamwork and resilience sit at the heart of the Jon Egging Trust, and there are few challenges that embody these qualities better than the extraordinary trans-Atlantic mission that Chris and Kip are taking on. I have deep admiration for them both and am honoured they have chosen to support our work with disadvantaged students through their fundraising journey. The whole JET team would like to extend our gratitude to Chris and Kip, and wish them fair winds and following seas for their incredible adventure ahead.

— Dr Emma Egging Jon Egging Trust CEO

As Patron of the Jon Egging Trust, I am delighted to give my personal endorsement to Chris and Kip who are embarking on this phenomenal mental and physical challenge for JET. The funds raised will make a huge difference to the students we support, many of whom have faced challenge and adversity of their own. We are immensely grateful to Team Horizon for their support, and I wish Chris and Kip courage and strength for a safe and successful Atlantic crossing in 2025.
