About Us
Children’s Sailing Trust (CST) is a charity based in Cornwall that offers access to sailing and watersports to children aged 8-16, as well as young people with additional needs. We are passionate about using these activities as a tool to develop confidence, competence and resilience, enabling participants to reach their full potential in life. One of our key beliefs is that all children and young people should have the same opportunity to learn sailing and watersports, irrespective of financial challenges, disabilities or special educational needs.
Our charity has been working on the Helford River since 1997, taking local children, young people and adults sailing via our term-time schools programme, after school programme, weekend and commercial holiday courses. Our second location is the Trust’s fully accessible watersports centre at Trevassack Lake on the Lizard Peninsula. Complementing our current activities, Trevassack Lake enables us to offer watersports to a wider range of participants with specialist equipment that allows opportunities for all.
It is our ethos that everything we offer is available to all abilities, working hard to ensure that we are not only fully accessible, but fully inclusive, too.
