Young Horizons is a charity which provides young people from areas of deprivation with a weekend sailing experience as part of structured development programme. This development programme provides a diverse and powerful combination of knowledge and skills which are designed to break the cycle of deprivation and low motivation that typically lead to poor life opportunities. Places on the sailing expeditions have to be earned by successfully completing the qualifying stages of the development programme. While the expeditions are intended to be enjoyable, they are certainly not a leisure cruise. The young crew has to learn to collaborate to make the boat “work”; e.g. where to go, how to get there and who does what. This challenging environment reinforces self-confidence and trust in others as well as providing an experience and range of skills completely outside of their normal “comfort zone”. In 2011 Young Horizons aims to provide 8 sailing expeditions with up to 9 young people on each. Despite the fact that our crews are made up of highly qualified volunteers, each expedition still costs approximately £2,000. Our short term goal, therefore, is to raise £16,000, to fund the 2011 season. In the medium term, our goals are to increase the number of sailing trips per seaon and the number of youth charities and youth programs we support. One of our long term goals is to own and run our own boat, to steamline our expenses and maximise operational efficiency, as we increase the number of sailing expeditions we provide. We will, of course, greatly appreciate any support that you could give us for this very worthwhile cause.
