Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

We want to help raise money so future generations can also come and learn how to sail and race up at Yeadon Tarn. We have an amazing club with very committed members but our club house is falling down around our feet. We are a grass roots sailing club and the only one in Leeds. 

We cannot bid for big grants until we find something called match funding - so we are doing our bit for our local club. We will be starting at 5pm and sailing throughout the night non stop for 24 hours, hopefully not falling asleep or crashing into the Isalnd ( or Tony!!)  Please , please support us. We want other young people to have the same opportunity to learn to sail here in the future. 

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity. So it’s the most efficient way to donate – saving time and cutting costs for the charity.
