Cowes-based charity and leading maritime training provider, UKSA last week announced that it will continue to support The Ellen MacArthur Trust for the next three years.
The charity has supported the trust for the last seven years by providing its facilities for the Trust to use as a base.
They also provide advice on safety management, good practice and support for professional yachting qualifications for the young people who come to sail with The Trust.
Jon Ely, Chief Executive at UKSA, said: “Working in partnership with other organisations is the best way to ensure we meet the needs of each young person and support impactful long term outcomes. The Ellen MacArthur Trust is a fantastic charity that has a similar ethos to us – to make a huge difference to many young lives and we are pleased to be able to work together”.
