Cambridge Rowing Experience
We are delighted to offer a rare and exciting opportunity for you to experience Cambridge’s most iconic sport - ROWING! The experience is aimed at complete beginners irrespective of your level of fitness (T&C's apply). The ultimate aim is to get you to simply experience what it's like to row in Cambridge. We run half-day sessions throughout the year using high quality facilities and equipment. You’ll get the chance to row in a coxed 'eight' boat, just like the crews in the famous Oxford-Cambridge Boat Race. The entire experience is fully Covid compliant. Lifejackets can be provided if needed although the eight boat is the safest boat in our fleet. So whether you want to tick it off the bucket list, learn a new skill, bond with your friends or your team, or make new friends - sign up for the Cambridge Rowing Experience today.

ITECH MOBILE & LAPTOP REPAIR SPECIALISTS
ABOUT ITECH MOBILES Founded in 2014 by entrepreneur of Itech Mobiles & Laptop Reairs is the leading high tech brand in offering express repairs of any kind of smartphones and tablets. The concept of Itech Mobile was born out of the clear need in the market place for a trusted and specialist solution for those looking for tech repairs. While at university, we identified through his own misfortune with his smartphone that the market was completely under serviced, despite the fact that smartphones and other personal devices were becoming increasing important to our everyday lives. It was here he began his mission to create a trustworthy brand and team who could provide top quality service and quick repairs and in 2006, the very first Itech Mobile store was opened in London.
