The Genie's Wish Charity
The Genie's Wish is a UK newly registered charity whose mission is to enhance the lives of people aged from Birth to 40 years of age, living in England & Wales, who are suffering from a critical or terminal illness or living with a life-limiting medical condition. Our purpose is to bring respite and joy into the lives of our beneficiaries and their families, by providing them with a life-changing wish, experience, or ongoing opportunity.
We also provide experiences, bespoke events and activities for young carers, aged between 5-16, in recognition of their bravery, kindness and selflessness they display daily by caring for a family member.
The Andrew Simpson Foundation
Our mission is "Together we transform lives through sailing"
The vision of the Andrew Simpson Foundation is to build an engaged, global community of accessible sailing and water sports, which is underpinned by an ethos of "Sailing for All"
The fundamental ethos is to facilitate a wider participation in sailing, and to optimise the benefits that the sport can deliver to young people and ultimately to society at large.
The Greig City Academy (GCA) Sailing Programme
The Greig City Academy (GCA) Sailing programme is Britain's only inner-city school sail training programme.
Since 2014, it has broken new ground in inspiring deprived students, mostly from BAME backgrounds, to transform their lives through sailing at all levels, from dinghies to ocean racing. Over five years, Greig City Academy's Sailing project has achieved extraordinary results and national prominence.
