What will you be doing?
We have just completed an exciting fundraising project in 2025, enabling us to purchase a new £300,000 yacht, which will give 10 years service to the charity. We now need to fund raise for annual running costs and plan a strategy for the next yacht purchase in 3-5 years. We pride ourselves on being friendly and relaxed and we encourage full participation and inclusivity by all our abled and disabled volunteers and members.
