|Summary of the purposes of<br>the charity as set out in its<br>governing document|Para 1.17|Promote the advancement of amateur sport<br>for underprivileged young people by the<br>provision of facilities and training for the<br>purposes of sailing and consequently,<br>promote the advancement of the physical<br>health and fitness of participants.|

This change is due to a<br>number of factors: since Covid many of our<br>volunteers have moved onto other things,<br>during covid we had to reduce activity and<br>could no longer justify the cost of our admin<br>support who managed much of the logistics<br>of our training days, and we also gave up<br>our charity boat, as the associated costs<br>could not be justified when we were not<br>able to run programmes.|
