We are a registered charity offering sailing and waterborne activities for disabled children and young adults throughout Derbyshire and Leicestershire.
We also offer the opportunity for less mobile sailors to continue sailing when a conventional dinghy may be a little too much for them to handle.
There is no lower or upper age limit. However, we reserve the right to restrict or limit access or activities.
If you or your organisation would like to get involved as a user of our facilities, or you would like to sponsor or support our work, please email us.
We are based at Staunton Harold reservoir, near Melbourne, Derbyshire, alongside Staunton Harold Sailing Club.
Check out our partners the Pontoon and Dock Company, suppliers of pontoons, Hereford hoists and all things making water accessible to all.

Sailing with the Trust happens in three main ways.
We have Laser13 sailing dinghies, Hansa dinghies, and a double-seated Hansa.

Powerboating is provided primarily for reasons of safety on the water.
However, on our annual day, because of the many people attending and their possible lack of sailing experience, we use powerboats to show our visitors around the lake, allowing them to experience being afloat.
