We're joined in this episdoe by Grace Young (http://www.graceunderthesea.com), who describes herself as an "ocean engineer and explorer." Grace has a boundless love of the oceans and has even lived under the waves for 15 days. As a scientist, she is working to help humankind understand the world's seas—an environment we know less about and have spent less time in than space.

In this episode, we speak with Mira Moore of Kaya Responsible Travel (www.kayavolunteer.com), an organisation that arranges volunteer opportunities overseas. We talk about her time in the Philippines and the satisfaction she finds in helping people help people. We also get an update on Sarah's cats. In fact, we can't shut them up. You'll also hear of Sarah's swimming training.

We're back and there is plenty to catch up on. Sarah's row is off for 2015, but it isn't the end of the road. Instead, it's time for a pivot. In this episode, you'll hear about Sarah's plans and also how she has coped with the disappointment of the row not going ahead this year.

We also hear from Edward Talbot Adams, one of the most interesting people you will ever hear talk. Farmer, timberhouse builder, soldier, chemist—he has crammed more into his life than most of us could even imagine, let alone actually do. He is the man behind Kush Travel Soap, an environmentally sound product of immense practicality. Sarah is an ardent fan.

Sarah wasn't able to raise the funds she needed to complete the boat in time for her planned departure at the end of May this year. BUT that doesn't mean the dream is dead. It lives on. Sarah is more determined than ever to raise funds for Oceans Project by rowing solo around Britain. The podcast will continue too...

This is it. Crunch time. As the clock runs down on Sarah's Kickstarter campaign, her row around Britain is in the balance. Her dreams of bringing education to children who need it around the world hangs by a thread. We need your help. A tiny donation, a tweet, a mention—anything to keep her ambition alive. Listen in, or go straight to https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1815085928/oceans-project-bringing-the-ocean-alive-for-kids-w/posts

Sarah endures her first ever filling and brings us up to date on the Kickstarter campaign. Will she raise the money she needs to set out in May?

Sarah has launched her Kickstarter campaign in a bid to get herself to the startline of her round-Britain row at the end of May. She speaks candidly about tackling doubt and the concerns of maybe not making it. She talks about what is at stake and why the row matters so much to her and the children she wants to help.

Sarah has launched a Kickstarter campaign to help raise the final funds that she needs to complete her boat for the row. You can help by either making a pledge (they start from as little as £1) or by promoting her Kickstarter campaign. You'll also hear how Sarah recently injured herself, making her increasingly cautious about her preparation for her unique undertaking.
