Sailability Milton Keynes, aims to promote and encourage recreational and competitive sailing for people with disabilities, with the objective of improving their quality of life. Our volunteers help people of all ages to participate and enjoy sailing. We are based at Milton Keynes Sailing club, South Caldecotte Lake. Your donations help provide boats, equipment and support our volunteer instructors. We welcome people of all abilities: sailors and non-sailors.
Why the community needs usWhen people are impacted by a life changing accident, or illness; or if they have learning or visual impairments, then we can help these people establish independence and freedom. People of all ages are able to enjoy sailing in Milton Keynes. Thanks to generous donations and sponsors, we have 8 boats specially designed to be stable and suitable for people with range of abilities. Our special hoist can make getting into a boat simple and straightforward.
Our impact on the communitySail days provide a mixed social group where all participants, including volunteers, have an enjoyable time, providing a medium for greater confidence in the wider community. Through our links with the Royal Yachting Association, we can offer development and support for people who want to achieve excellence to international level, or simply potter around in our boats. www.rya.org.uk/sailability
