Desborough Sailing Club (DSC) Ferry Lane, Shepperton, Surrey TW17 9LQ Charitable lncorporated Organisation Registered Charity No. 1181243 ## **Annual Report For the period 1 January to 31 December 2021** ## **Introduction** The annual accounts are formally approved by the AGM and form part of this report. Trustees are appointed or reappointed each year by the AGM in accordance with the constitution. ## **Objects** The objects of the CIO are: - a) the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation, by the provision and maintenance of facilities for water sports with a particular emphasis on amateur sailboat racing and cruising; - b) ) the provision of safe facilities for teaching and practicing the skills of sailing dinghies, yachts and boats under power. ## **How These Objects Were Achieved** - After starting the year under Covid restrictions, club activity was restarted as soon as regulations allowed. - Racing was once again very popular and racing across all the series was very well supported. We were able to run a full Racing programme this year. - Beyond racing, we also saw lots of enthusiasm for our informal sailing sessions on Monday evenings, which are encouraging less experienced sailors to practice and build confidence. - Friday evening sessions for Cadets also proved very popular and were well supported. - Our programme of Saturday Improver and Family sailing days was extended and ran from May and September. - We were able to offer both an Easter and a Summer sailing course this year, still in the modified form adopted modified during Covid restrictions to accommodate numbers and meet hygiene requirements. - RYA PB level 2 courses were run twice during the year. This full RYA course gives a good initiation to the skills of handling a powered craft and increases the number of volunteers who can take charge of our safety boats to provide safety cover at DSC and other local events. - We saw a healthy increase in the number of sailing members as well as the integration of the Sunbury Skiff & Punt Club who joined us. ## **Facilities** The large club site is leasehold. The main building is the clubhouse. Onshore berths are available for members to keep dinghies and canoes, while larger sailing boats (“cruisers”) can be kept onshore or on moorings. Members of Sunbury Skiff club are members of Desborough and base their skiffs at Desborough. 2021 investment in premises included the major project of resurfacing the lane which is our access road from the public highway. There are two slipways for dinghies and one for larger boats, along with extensive pontoons and jetties. The club maintains a fleet of sailing dinghies for use by the training school or for rent to members, and members are encouraged to have their own dinghies. This fleet was increased by the addition of a further two dinghies which were purchased second hand in 2021, a Topper and a Solo. ## **Covid** The club was closed during periods of lockdown, and at other times introduced appropriate precautions according to government and RYA guidance. The clubhouse was closed, but outdoor facilities were maintained.
