Victory at Henley for Former Perins Student

A huge congratulations to Abi Newman, a former Perins student, who won the Aspirational Academic 8s event at the Henley Women’s Regatta last with her team from Oxford Brookes. 

Abi and her crew powered through a series of time trials and knockout races, defeating Exeter University in the quarter-final, London University in the semi-final, and edging out Newcastle University in a thrilling final to bring home The Colgan Foundation Cup! 

We’re incredibly proud of Abi and her continued achievements, a fantastic example of aspiration, teamwork, and determination.
