Disability...

Changing lives
We aim to improve the quality of life for those with disabilities through watersports and yachting experiences. The sense of achievement this instils makes a significant contribution to increasing confidence and self-esteem.


Disability...changing lives
Funding required: £41,500

We need to raise £41,500 this year to fund yachting and residential watersports experiences for people with disabilities.
We have the facilities and expertise to work with schools, groups and individuals to provide quality experiences afloat for all ages and abilities. Assisted funding for people with disabilities gives access to a life enhancing experience which would otherwise be unavailable.
