Over the past few years Dinghy sailing deserves its position as the highest profile activity for the club. Our
array of dinghies proudly parked in front of the club are frequently used. Historically the club saw Dinghies as

fun, adding sailing to their essential supporting role5 ashore and afloat. by jumping into the dinghies

complementary about what we were doing and was able to give some good pointers asto how we can build
upon we have achieved. The coastal cornmunity Grant which allowed us to buy the Quest and 3 Zest's, also
allowed for training, this included members acquiring powerboat training (run by HIEI with some going on to
take the safety boat course at Loth Insh. The first Junior week was held in 2001. except for a covid gap, it has
been held every year since. I have lost count of how many juniors have learnt to sail. it will be well over 100.

Crulsln
The pontoons at the harbour offer a new dimension for cruising boats, some now take up residence either for
summer or winter or both. Most yachts still use moorings, launching in the spring and hauling out in the
autumn. The club remains adventurous as ever, Whrte Star reached Isle of Man. Kumari reached Ireland and
Kingh'sher Lofoten Island. Others remained local or at least within the west coast= grotty weather in July and
August didn't helpl A couple of 'rneet ups, where boats met for a night Imostly in the Summer Isles). and a

**Achievements** 

The activities outlined below map what we undertook across 5 principal areas: all elements exceeded our expectations, 

Our main achieving was to become a SCIO and completing the steps for its formal transfer from the old club to the new. 

The club is supported by the RYA.  We were visited by the regional development officer, and the RYA supported an informal review of our activities which endorsed our success and made some positive recommendations for continued improvement which have been adopted. 

Like many clubs’ small remote rural locations, we strive to maximize our human capital to enable us to achieve the range of activities we enjoy, we are proud that our achievements match and exceed many clubs better resourced than our own.  Our greatest achievement is to safely facilitate an outdoor sport that improves the wellbeing of young people and adults of all ages and brings together families to enjoy these together. 

The club works hard to make these accessible and affordable for all sectors of society.  Sailing is a sport where for all ages learning is achieved through practice and experience, however we also support formal training and acquisition of recognized qualifications.  The club ensures that our clubhouse, boats and procedures meet best practice for health and safety.

Charitable Purposes
These are set out in Paragraph 4 of our constilution
The orgoni517tion's primary purpose is to promote ondfarilitate the sport of soiling. The orgoni5Utyon's
furtherpurposes are to encourage and enoble comrnunity participation all asperts of boating, woter
sports and outdoor octs"vities.
As part of the SCIO applicakn.on LBSC were asked to identify how our acbvities help achieve our Charitable
purposes.. For future reference these are set out below.
OSCAR sets out 16 purposes that our set out in Scottish charty legislation. The following 6 apply to the
activitias set out in our purposes.
the advancement of educatlon: Sailing, water sports and outdoor activities= all require command of
specific tèchnical skills. Acquiring these requirès training, learning and practical èxperience.
the advantÈmÈnt of hèalth. Any sporting and outdoor activity improvès physical fitness and well-
being. What LBSC do clearly meets these goals. The club brings together a good balan￿ of male and
female members and a wide age range. In a safe and friendly environment this allows individuals to
get to know each other and develop lastr.ng friendships. This is equally important for mental as well
as physical hea￿h. Sailing and Watersports provide many opportunities for team-work and co-
0￿ratiOn. In the Highlands wèathér, can bè challènging, through eontrolled and safe practices this
help5 develop personal resilience and sense of personal achievement.
the advancement of citizenship or cornrnunity developmenL The sailing club is run by volunteers.
The leadership. organisath.onal and business skills required can provide a development opportunity
for any member prepared to join in. The professional background of club members are diverse and
transferable skills are plenty (from scientists, solicitors, engineers, small business owners Iretail and
hospitality), boat-buildèrs and earpèntèrsl- Thè skills inherÈnt in thè club mèans wè arÈ ablè to
support other community athvities.. e.g. water safety support for triathlon and Skiff regattas. The
clubhouse and its location are available to small community groups to use.
The advancement of public participation in sporL This is self-evident in what we do through sailing
and Watersports.
the provlslon of recreatlonal facllltles, or the organlsatlon of recreatlonal acthiltles, wlth the object
of Improvlng the condltlons of Ilfe for the persons for whom the facllltles or actlvltles are prlmarlly
intended. Again, this is self*vident. The history of the club is full of examples where our artivitie5
have been life affirming. In particular as sailing can be very inclusive as a family acknvity, especially
for parents with young and teenage children. The club building is used by other groups within
Ullapool.
the advancement of envlronmental protectlon or Improvement. Sailing, Watersports and outdoor
activities all develop a strong awareness and the water enwronment and the pressures it facès. Our
sailing area is within a designated Marine Proterted Area. The club is used by a group of young
