Children’s Sailing Trust is an RYA training centre and an RYA On-Board member.

Our mission is to inspire young people to reach their potential by building skills for life through sailing. We work with local Primary Schools, providing children aged 8-11 years with the incredible opportunity of learning how to sail out on the open water - using sailing as a tool to teach resilience, teamwork and communication skills.

One of these schools is St Keverne Primary School who keep coming back year after year. Here’s what their Senior Teacher, Tom Mitchell, says about how we make a difference to the children at their school.

But as a charity, we can’t make a difference without your support. If you would like to find out more about what we do, please get in touch at [email protected] or click here to donate https://www.childrenssailingtrust.org.uk/donate/

Our Trevassack Lake Cafe has been bustling this morning but the layer of fog on the lake has only been good for one type of web-footed customer...Kayak, Mr Duck?

It’s always great to connect with local businesses who are keen to support local charities. Today, our Fundraising Lead met up with Matt at The Gym Project in Falmouth. Every three months or so, The Gym Project run a special charity bootcamp where the cost of the session goes to charity. And their Sept/Oct one is going to be for us! Thank you very much 😀.

Community fundraising means so much as it’s about coming together, sharing a belief in what our young people can achieve, and giving our community the opportunity to play a part in making a difference.

Every fundraiser, big or small, helps us give more children the chance to get out on the water, build confidence, develop new skills and experience the freedom and joy that sailing can bring.

We’re incredibly grateful to local businesses and our wider community for getting behind us and helping make these opportunities possible. If you would like to fundraise for us, please get in touch at [email protected]

A little bit of sunshine on a thundery day - a kind volunteer tended to our rather heat frazzled flower boat at the entrance to our Trevassack Lake HQ this week, reviving and replanting in memory of the special lady who first created and looked after it, Jakie's mum, Cecily Miller 🥰

Our resident Iyengar yoga teacher kindly held an extra class , raising an incredible £240 for Children's Sailing Trust. So we wanted to say a huge thank you to Amanda and everyone who came along and donated.

Whether you’re a baker, runner or want to try something new, why not organise a fundraiser for Children’s Sailing Trust? Every pound raised will help us create affordable and accessible watersports opportunities for young people in Cornwall. Get in touch at [email protected]

If you would like to book yoga with Amanda (Mon and Sat at 10am), you can contact her on either 07800 830335 or [email protected]
