Help special educational needs pupils discover the thrill of sailing, raft building and other watersports activities

Support volunteers needed for Andrew Simpson Watersports Centre – Reading in RG7

The Andrew Simpson Sailing Foundation are working on a project to provide special educational needs pupils from local schools the opportunity to participate in watersport activities such as sailing, raft building, traversing, stand-up paddleboarding and many others.

We would love to get our community involved in our project and give everyone a chance to enjoy some watersports too. We are looking for adult volunteers who would like to support our project which we are looking to start in April 2018 and run once a week for 10 weeks.

Supporters can join in as many or as little sessions as they wish. We are looking for volunteers who like outdoor activities and teamworking as you will help assist and join in with the activities.
