Round the Island Race 2009 · 20 June 2009 ·

The Foundation aims to promote boating attainable for all. People disadvantaged by youth age disability financial hardship or social circumstances are under-represented in the boating world. We give grants to fund the facilities needed to open doors to new participants and develop social capital

Story

Thanks for visiting our fundraising page. We are lucky to be eight able bodied people that all enjoy sailing. Four of the team members are from the Gardner family who have sailed together for more than 20 years! We completed the race and came 686 out of 1,779 entrants. Not bad for beginners? Participating in this race was an amazing and exciting experience. It has given us the opportunity to give something back to those less fortunate than ourselves as well as our own personal achievement. You can view pictures of the race on the web site: www.roundisland.org.uk You can still sponsor us in raising some more cash for RYA Sailability. The Lame Duck Club is a unique small group of sailing people from the East Coast of UK that have at some time rescued people, pets or what have you from the perils of the sea! We have a unique pennant that can be seen in the picture. Donating through Justgiving is quick, easy and totally secure. It's also the most efficient way to sponsor us: RYA Sailability gets your money faster and, if you're a UK taxpayer, Justgiving makes sure 25% in Gift Aid, plus a 3% supplement, are added to your donation. So please sponsor us now and let others enjoy the fun of sailing in a boat. Thanks so much from (left to right):Heather, Conrad, Mike, Nicola, Derek, Damian, Alice & Hilary
