Richard will tell us about his time here as a student, about winning gold – and then his subsequent career in the Olympic movement including being the chief medical officer for London 2012.

This evening the committee had a virtual meeting to discuss the upcoming Michaelmas term and the challenges rowing faces in these unprecedented times 🚣♀️
It's not going to be easy, but we're going to work hard to make sure outings can go ahead with safety as a top priority! 💪💪
We're going to need lots of blue roll, sanitiser and spreadsheets, but stay tuned for SCBC's (somewhat different) Michaelmas 2020 campaign ❤️🚰❤️
