Seas Your Future is the trading name of Adventure Under Sail, a small charity involved in sail training, maritime careers and ocean science. We are seeking to recruit local volunteer Ambassadors at an exciting time in our development, to raise our profile, to attract new sources of funding, and to develop partnerships with youth organisations to deliver our mission. Over the next five years we have the exciting opportunity potentially to double the number of young people who sail with us, but we need additional skills and resources. Could you help us?
Our mission is “….to educate young people, through the provision of sailing or sailing related activities and other training and so as to develop their physical, mental, and social capabilities so that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society and their conditions of life may be improved”.
We pursue these objectives on board the tall ships Pelican of London and Fridtjof Nansen by:
Young people need support now more than ever. This is a great opportunity to contribute positively to the development of young people and to partner with some committed and passionate individuals
If you would like an informal discussion for further information, please contact Simon Thorrington our Development and Partnerships Manager, simon@seasyourfuture.org
We could not maintain our tall ships, Pelican of London and Fridtjof Nansen, without the help and support of our volunteers. Become a volunteer and your time will be highly valued. We rely on volunteer crew throughout the year, and our Tall Ship requires regular maintenance when it is in dry dock in Sharpness or Bristol to ensure safety and comfort for the sailing crew and youth trainees.
Our 2020 Development Plan outlines our aims and objectives for the next few years.
Crew and students share experiences with you on their Seas Your Future voyages with College Partners and Darwin200.
