Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust
United Kingdom
Приєднався 21 жов 2014
The Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust inspires young people aged 8-24 to believe in a brighter future living through and beyond cancer.
Young people remain vulnerable after treatment as it comes at a time of rapid physical, emotional and social development. That's why for many, simply picking up where they left off before their diagnosis just isn’t possible.
Any young person who has been treated for cancer from across the UK can join us for a transformational four-day sailing experience from Cowes, on the Isle of Wight, or Largs on Scotland's West Coast.
Many young people need support over time too. So, once a young person has come sailing with the Trust, they can keep coming back for more sailing or outdoor adventures.

Experience the joy of sailing!
Sophie and Ines joined us for their first sailing adventure this week, it's incredible to think they only met four days ago. Witnessing the joy they experienced together, united #InTheSameBoat, and seeing such strong friendships blossom so quickly is what it's all about.

After young people come sailing, they often say the same thing: ‘we’re all in the same boat’. It's a clever play on words that never loses its charm, but why does it resonate so deeply? Beyond the camaraderie of crewmates, beyond the thrill of navigating 45ft yachts, watch our new video to understand the impact that sailing together in the same boat has on young people living through and beyond...
