Local school children from St Keverne Primary School learning skills for life at the lake today!

Getting out on the water through sailing is an incredibly good way of teaching skills children don't necessarily get in the classroom, often putting them outside of their comfort zone in an unfamiliar environment and having to work with peers to solve problems and prevent the dreaded capsize! Well, that is until they have the confidence and resilience to start capsizing on purpose!

Our aim is to put these youngsters on a positive pathway in life, showing them the things they can achieve if they try.

We're very proud of all of them.

🏊‍♀️ One Saturday in November, a lake on the Lizard is about to fill with brightly coloured swim hats.
The distances start small and go a long way further, and nobody's stopping you doing more than one 👀 Here's what's planned 👇

We would like to say a huge thank you to The Clare Milne Trust for their recent funding towards our SEND Programme. Their grant will enable two specialist SEND schools with the life-changing opportunity to participate in a series of fully supported water sports sessions over the next year.

Thanks to incredible support like this, we are able to create a safe, supportive, and inclusive environment where young people who may face significant barriers to participation can access the physical, emotional, and social benefits of being on the water.

The Clare Milne Trust provides grant funding to charities who support people living with disabilities in Devon and Cornwall. Since 1999 the Trust has awarded over £12million in order to transform the lives of people with disabilities.

We can't thank you enough for your continued support.

A big WELL DONE to everyone at Curnow School for their hard work, determination and fun had in and on the water at Trevassack Lake - we absolutely love our big book of thank you drawings!

End of Autumn programme fun this week, for students from Cornwall College Camborne 🥳

The college will be back next term, but without long-term organiser Emma Allen, who joined the students in the water - we'll miss you Emma!

Our charity programme isn't just for primary-age children - we work with SEND school groups too, up to age 25. If you'd like to help our cause, get in touch.
