“Suddenly, a whole world of possibilities opened up.”
Out on the water, something remarkable happens. Away from the pressures of everyday life, young people facing a lack of opportunity learn to lead, communicate, and believe in themselves.
To celebrate 70 years of changing young lives at sea, we invite you to give a special anniversary gift of £70 today or any amount you are able to donate. Every pound helps us reach the next young person who needs our support.
Today’s young people are facing overwhelming challenges – from mental health pressures and poverty to neurodiversity and social isolation.
The ocean changes that. It is a powerful, unique learning environment where traditional limitations fall away, replaced by teamwork and self-belief.
“Since 1956, over 125,000 young people have sailed two million miles with us. Today, the need for this unique space to grow is more critical than ever.”
– Alastair Floyd, CEO
The Power of 70
Every 70 gifts of £70 helps fund three of our life-changing youth development voyages.
Immediate Impact
Your support breaks down barriers, giving a young person the chance to discover what they are truly capable of.
A Lifetime Legacy
You aren’t just funding a voyage; you are sparking a lifetime of confidence, resilience, and independence.
When a young person steps outside their comfort zone at sea, the impact stays with them forever. A single voyage could become the starting point for their entire future. Just like Elouise.
“Sailing changed my life. It opened the world up for me. It made me realise that actually these things are possible for a kid growing up with not a lot of money.”
– Elouise, TSYT Crew Member & Royal Navy Sailor
Your gift today creates a brighter future for their tomorrow
Help us change young lives for the next 70 years.
