ABOUT THE CHALLENGER

Growing up in the heart of Herefordshire in a military family, exploration and discipline comes naturally.

With a successful background in professional cycling, seasonal work in the French Alps and white water instructing in California, Annasley Park thirst for exploration continued. The last four years she has gained maritime experience in the super yacht industry as a deckhand and this is where the discovery of ocean rowing captured her imagination. With a unique life story and experiences gained, Annasley has a duty to inspire and educate a generational shift in resilience as well as raise money for her three chosen charities that are very close to her heart.

Authentically capturing her strengths and vulnerabilities across multimedia platforms and gaining knowledge, skills and experience from a mindfully selected team, will be imperative for the success of the Ocean Survivoar Challenge 2025!

THE CHALLENGE

The Ocean Survivoar Challenge will start from Tenerife and finish in Barbados.

Known to be one of the toughest endurance events in the world, it not only demands physical and mental strength, but also discipline and dedication. The Ocean Survivoar Challenge is a solo and unsupported mission across the Atlantic.

However, it takes a team with the same drive , values and passion to get Annasley from the start to the finish line. It says quite a bit, when there are more people that have climbed Mount Everest and have gone to space than rowed an ocean!

MS SOCIETY

Over 130,000 people live with multiple sclerosis in the UK. It’s different and unpredictable for everyone, making it hard to know how it’ll progress. To stop MS, they need to find ways to repair myelin, the protective coating around nerves, damaged in MS. To do this, they need to connect research from the lab right through to the clinic.
