TWO events in Henley are among 37 projects sharing more than £86,000 in grants from the Waterways Trust.
The charity gives money to schemes that care for, enhance or increase the use of the Thames.
The events are the annual charity duck race, organised by Henley Lions Club (£500 grant), and the Henley Regatta for the Disabled (£1,500), which will take place for the first time on September 4.
Other beneficiaries include the Henley River and Rowing Museum Foundation (£2,950) and Goring Gap Boat Club (£1,365) for the enlargement of its family section.
