Detailed Description

Tideway Sailability provides sailing for people with a wide range of disabilities. This activity allows our sailors, assisted by our volunteers, to the extent necessary, to take control in a challenging but safe environment very different to anything they may have experienced before. We get consistently good feedback from our sailors, family members and their helpers. We need volunteers to run all our activities- we have no paid staff. New volunteers are always needed to help with welcoming and preparing our sailors, helping with the boats shoreside, on the water accompanying our sailors.
