A rowing club in Oxford will be raising funds for a new boathouse with a community event this weekend.

Oxford Amateur Rowing Club's event will take place in Leiden Square, Westgate on April 6 and 7.

Members of the public will have the chance to use a stationary rowing machine, while also getting a glimpse of the rowing VIII similar to one used by the Oxford and Cambridge teams last weekend.

Cambridge won both the men's and women's Boat Races at the weekend.

It was Cambridge women's sixth Boat Race triumph in a row as they overcame Oxford with another dominant performance in the 77th edition.

The event will also aim to raise public awareness of the club and promote rowing as a sport for everyone.
