PORTSMOUTH SAIL TRAINING TRUST 

The Trust uses sail training as a method of raising the aspirations of inner city young people through their teenage years. Their training is both on the water and on dry land and results in the growth of confidence, teamwork and leadership skills whilst gaining valuable qualifications to enhance their careers and enable them to actively participate in the regeneration of our community.

Financial issues to consider:

  • On several occasions in recent years income has been less than spending
miles
