My Blue Pass reached a significant waypoint in 2023 – five years of committed service since launching in 2019.
During the 2023 season, 173 individual children participated in at least one sailing experience, a total of 258 sailing sessions were provided, and 22 children achieved RYA dinghy sailing course certificates. With the generous support of the RYA and funding from Trinity House we acquired an additional three RS Terra and two RS Feva dinghies enabling us to continue to provide more advanced sailing training and skills development for our older members, some of whom have been sailing with us since 2019.
Looking ahead to 2024’s season we have a new partner/provider for our kayaking activities and are aiming to increase opportunities for young people to participate in ‘taster’ kayaking experiences or to develop existing skills.
We will also be extending training provision and the range of on the water activities for our older and more experienced members under our ‘Team MBP’ banner. The aim is to maintain engagement and interest, to encourage participation, and to support them in racing if they are interested. We are very hopeful some of these young people will ultimately graduate to becoming MBP instructors of the future.
The Stour Sailing Club has always been at the heart of the ability of our organisation to achieve and deliver, generously making the use of safety boats available to us, as well as clubhouse facilities when we need them and allocating secure storage space for our boats in the compound. Without this support and that of our many generous donors and sponsors we would simply not be able to operate our RYA Recognised Sail Training Centre and deliver on the water activities for the young people in our community.
