The Tall Ships Race is an amazing opportunity to push young people out of their comfort zone and participate in event that brings together people of different nationalities, religions and cultures, promoting international friendship and understanding. They will also get to experience life at sea, working in teams on "watches" to ensure the safe passage of the boat across the North Sea. Both the starting and finishing port will host a wide array of activities and a festival like feel for the young people.

Fundraising is critical to ensure that this opportunity is available to all of the young people who wish to experience it.
