The Swan Trust SCIO

About

The Trust was set up to advance education by encouraging (young) people to sail on the Swan, keeping traditional sailing techniques alive. to advance heritage and culture by maintaining Swan as a working vessel so that she may be preserved and open to public as part of our maritime and fishing heritage, and enabling public participation in sport, by organising sailing trips on the Swan. Swan is a community asset which brings people together, whether on a sailing trip, as part of our volunteer base or through community events. With a particular focus on enabling youth sail training, we connect with schools, sail training and youth organisations, and undertake a range of youth sails every year. We value and help to develop the skills of our volunteer base, looking to help them as they help us, and work with partner organisations to enhance community events and offer sailing and personal development opportunities to all.
