Volunteer Recruitment Day Sunday June 21st -
10am to 5pm
Accessible Boating Thames (ABT) is a local charity that aims to take people with disabilities onto the River Thames in their accessible boats. For more information on the charity see https://accessibleboatingthames.org
We are looking for volunteers with experience in power boating, sailing or paddling, or in fact no experience at all to come and join us running sessions for families, groups and local SEND school classes. We run regular training and familierisation sessions during the season (April – October)
Because of the range of activities we provide
• Bellboating
• Wheeyboat Trips
• Sailing
We have many volunteering opportunities, both on the water and on shore including Shore support, paddling, sailing and power boating.
During the day we will have all our boats on the water and some volunteers to explain what we do and how we do it.
So if you are interested in volunteering for us and have a few hours to spare to help out with the activities we run for disabled participants and their families / friends please come along and meet us, just follow the signs to Bisham Abbey Sailing and Navigation School once inside the sports centre.
