Waveney Sailability members take to the water!

Every Tuesday afternoon from the end of April to Mid October you will see members of Waveney Sailability out on the water at Oulton Broad or sitting with friends having a chat over a cuppa and a piece of cake and watching the action.

Waveney Sailability enables people with disabilities to enjoy sailing in all its guises.  Whatever your disability we'll get you on the water in one of our specially built sailing dinghies or our squibs.  You can learn to sail and compete within the club and also join in other sailing events which take place at Oulton Broad throughout the sailing season.

If racing is not your choice then you can just enjoy the pleasures and thrills of being in a boat on the water either with a trained volunteer or solo.  Enjoy the freedom - leave disabilities behind on the jetty.

Waveney Sailability does it on the water...........

By providing support, training and equipment, Waveney Sailability enables all those with disabilities to enjoy the challenge of a physical activity in a safe and friendly environment.

Waveney Sailability is a Trust that has been set up by volunteers with help from local Rotary Clubs to help disabled people to find more enjoyment from life, and experience the enjoyment of sailing.
