The XCA is very grateful to the UK Government and the Royal Household of Kensington Palace for their kind words of support recently. Sadly, the Prince and Princess of Wales are unable to attend this year’s opening ceremony, but as a Dragon Boat racing participant during his time in Singapore last year, His Royal Highness is fully aware of the spectacular fun everyone is going to have this weekend. We are also delighted to be supporting the charity Action for Children once again this year, a charity of which the Princess of Wales is the Royal Patron.
