Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Ocean Youth Trust North takes young people away from their everyday routine and inspires them to make positive changes to their lives through ‘Adventure under Sail’. We use sailing and the traditional practices of seafaring as tools for personal and social development. The Trust is the sole provider of challenging, residential sailing expeditions in the North of England for youth of all abilities and backgrounds. We partner with youth and educational organisations providing an opportunity for young people to achieve personal growth. The Trust is a member of the Association of Sail Training Organisations and the Institute for Outdoor Learning. It is a Royal Yachting Association Training Centre and approved to run The Duke of Edinburgh Award.

Story

<p>Thanks for taking the time to visit the Dave Bennett memorial page.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Dave was a keen member of the Scout Association during his 65 years and his passion for adventure included taking part in two Tall Ships events with Northumberland County Scouts. He worked tirelessly with not only Scouts but also the local church, schools and charities, such as Barnardos, to improve the lives of young people in Norfolk and for the last 20 years in the North East.</p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Rather than sending flowers or a card we would prefer you contributed to enabling young people in the North East share the experiences, challenges and adventures that ocean sailing can offer them. So please dig deep and donate now.</p>
