Story
I am raising money on behalf of the Rona Trust, we take children from detention centres to public schools, (no more than two from any organisation on a trip) and mould them into a team during a week sailing 70 foot yachts. In addition we are the largest provider of offshore sailing to the disabled in the UK. In total we take around 1,000 young people with little or no experience sailing each year. Our aim is to provide (through the medium of sea training in offshore craft) opportunities for young people to acquire those attributes of a seaman, namely; a sense of responsibility, resourcefulness and team-work, which will help them throughout their lives |
