Rutland Sailability
We know that if you have a
disability your life isn’t as free and easy as you would like it to be.
Outdoor sporting options in particular seem pretty limited. At Rutland
Sailability we can offer you an activity which brings some of the freedom
your disability seems to have taken away

We have been doing this for 15 years and now have well over
200 members.
We are a registered
Charity.
We are recognised as a Centre of Excellence and Foundation
Site by the
Royal Yachting Association (RYA).
We operate from
Rutland Sailing Club,
on the southern shore of Rutland Water (Map),under approved
training and operating guidelines set by the RYA and the Sailing Club.
We have no age, ethnic, social, cultural or gender
barriers.
We provide training, support and equipment to enable our
members to enjoy the challenge of this physical activity in a safe,
welcoming and friendly atmosphere. |
