Story
We are a friendly sailing club that welcomes members and visitors of all ages. We try to encourage new members, especially families. Courses and relaxed sailing sessions are run and enjoyed regularly by a range of people (children and adults).
While we encourage all new members, at present a downfall of our lovely club is the outdated changing rooms. They were 'modernised' a long time ago and so now unfortunately are not adequate for the use we want to offer. For us to continue improving and be accessible to all, we desperately need our changing rooms updated to a modern standard.
Although as a club we offer disabled access, this does not extend to our toilets. The corridor and toilets are not wide enough to allow a wheelchair in. As well as this, the changing room layout is not practical for children to get changed / showered at the same time as adults. Another thing we need is a suitable baby change area, either in each changing room or in a disabled toilet, at the moment this doesn't exist and so it can be hard for parents to change their babies.
We are a non profit making organisation and our income covers our outgoings with very little left over. For us to raise the amount of money needed for the vital update would take us a very long time and we need them updated as soon as possible. We will be raising some money ourselves but are hoping that people will help us and add to our funds.
