**What the charity does:** We provide watersports activities available to all members of the local community of South West Mull and Iona. The area is very isolated geographically and is in the top 10% of areas in  Scotland deprived by lack of facilities and amenities. The organisation provides water activities such as sailing, kayaking and skiff rowing to build social cohesion within the community and to build positive mental and physical well being within the participants. We also run Open days where people can come to try out activities and have a social BBQ. We aim to run at least one activity per week during the summer period.
