It’s with many thanks to a local housing development in Salcombe that has provided funding towards improved sports facilities in the town. We were successful in our application and have been able to purchase a second hand Hawk 20 Sailing boat. This boat will just be perfect for our RYA Sailability program that’s starting in May.

Thanks also to @salcombeharbour and @south.hams for the opportunity.

We are seeing another increase in demand for RYA Adult courses this year.

A course is a really effective and quick way to pick up some skills and get started. If you already have some experience you might like to develop your skills further.

Back on the water from Saturday 2nd April. Office every day open for bookings and enquiries.

1 in 5 people are disabled with 70% aged over 50.

1 in 5 people are disabled with 70% aged over 50.

Living with impairments, long term health conditions and getting older is part of the experience for a significant number of Sailors. Evidence shows that disabled people are twice as likely to be inactive as non-disabled people. Many people may not use the term disabled to describe their own identity, but they may still face barriers that limit their activities on the water.

Sailability - Boating at your pace, adapted for you.

We are hoping to inspire more local disabled people to lead active lives through Sailing.

Why getting out on the water is good for you. Lea

Why getting out on the water is good for you.

Learning to Sail can focus the mind and body in the moment. Learning a new skill allows you to momentarily leave your comfort zone and immerse your thoughts on the experience of being out on the water.

Not forgetting the benefits of connecting with others, the social support and spending time with friends.

Enjoy Sailing with people in the same boat as you. You can learn new skills, challenge yourself, and get back to your best. The Sailing environment might be new, but you are surrounded by people who get you.

Regardless of your ability or disability, the act of trying something new is rejuvenating.

Hilary Rae Ball, participant of Ocean for Hope says: “I’d never been interested in Sailing, but it turned out to be the most incredible experience. I learned so much, not just about Sailing but about how far reaching MS is on our mental and physical strengths. It was a safe place for us to work through our self-doubt and to overcome it.”

Mental health is the largest cause of disability i

Mental health is the largest cause of disability in the UK. Many people with mental illness don’t consider themselves disabled.

The good news is that Sailing can and does have a tremendous impact on mental health and improved wellbeing. Sailing boosts self-esteem, improves our confidence, and reduces tension and stress.

Super proud that we are the FIRST RYA Sailability Training Centre in Salcombe.

“Success breeds success and the RYA has been able to establish one of the best sport development programmes in the world, built on the platform of our Olympic triumphs. There is a clear and direct link between Olympic success and clubs and schools at the very ‘grass roots’ of Sailing.”
