I hope that many more people get the opportunity to find out who they are and who they can really be. I have found nothing yet that matches the Jubilee Sailing Trust experience for giving you just that.

Help fundraise by joining our sweepstake, make a difference and help someone else to sail! Guess the percentage of time under sail for your voyage, for more information click here.
We want as many people as possible to benefit from sailing with us. A voyage with the Jubilee Sailing Trust frequently enables people to go home with a different outlook on life, a renewed vigour to challenge perceptions and show what can be achieved, so taking part should not be something only for the financially well off.
To make this happen we subsidise all voyage places and raise money for additional bursary funds too.

We need your help to keep Lord Nelson and Tenacious sailing and delivering life-changing voyages for disabled and able-bodied people.
We rely heavily on our individual, group and corporate supporters, charitable trusts, and our branches to help us find the funds required to keep the ships sailing and enabling people from all walks of life to take part in the experience, and we need your help too.
How to get involved
As an individual you may fancy a challenge and if walking the Great Wall of China or trekking to Machu Picchu in Peru are the sort of challenge that you relish, we can help. Click on Sponsored Challenges or contact our fundraising team for more information. T: 023 8042 6868 fundraising@jst.org.uk
You don't need to be ready to go to such extremes to help. You can join the JST as a member and also join one of our network of branches across the country that hold a fantastic array of events throughout the year. Ready to join in? See members and branches for more information or speak to the team on T: 023 8042 6868 or fundraising@jst.org.uk
If it is a challenge that you are after, there are plenty closer to home: sometimes all we need is a reason to take them up. So if you have been inspired by yours or a friend's voyage now is the time to set your goal and take up that challenge.

There are many events that you can take part in and also raise money for the Jubilee Sailing Trust. Do you fancy cracking the marathon? Or completing a triathlon? Remember that many events now include classes for disabled athletes too.
Join our maintenance teams
Our ships are maintained to the highest standard and go through regular periods of maintenance throughout the year. You can help the JST by lending your time and energy during maintenance. If you can wield a paint brush, or have specialist skills (you are, for example, an engineer, carpenter or electrician) and would like to help out, click here or contact us for more information T: 023 8044 3113 or operations@jst.org.uk
Involve your colleagues
Corporate Social Responsibility - and diversity in particular- is a consideration for companies of all sizes. With our mission of integration and our ability to help both disabled and non-disabled people grow and develop, the JST is a worthy cause for your organisation and one that your company can benefit directly from too.
There are several ways that companies can partner with the JST whether it is a series of sponsored events, a fundraising challenge, helping with maintenance or a full diversity awareness programme for employees. See Corporate Opportunities and Diversity Awareness to find out more or contact Sarah Staines on T: 023 8044 9108 or sarah@jst.org.uk
