02 Purpose and work

What the charity exists to do

The Training School, which runs RYA courses, has been busy, running sailing courses from introductory level 1 through to instructor level. We have also run power boat level two and power boat safety courses. We are always keen to see adults and children of all ages learn to sail and improve their skills and we run regular Sunday morning support and mentoring sessions, plus summer academies introducing youth sailing across all levels. The RYA also directly run training academies for Toppers and Oppies using our club facilities. Whilst we have also hosted an Enterprise traveler weekend. This allows adult and junior sailors from across the UK to benefit from our great facility. Once again we have hosted several major events including The Cancer Research Big Hike, The MacMIllan (cancer) Mighty Hike, The Challenger Traveler Weekend and The Scottish West District Open Water Swimming Championship. We can literally have hundreds of people on site on these occasions.
