Turn to Starboard

Using sailing courses to support Armed Forces personnel with the therapeutic effects of the sea

Turn to Starboard is a registered charity that uses sailing courses to support Armed Forces personnel that have been affected by military operations. We support both serving and retired personnel and their families, who can experience the established therapeutic effects of the sea, while sailing with those who have also served in hostile and austere environments. Our focus is on resettlement, reintegration and reinforcing a sense of value and belonging. We support families, helping them re-engage after separation; and individuals completing operational tours or requiring resettlement assistance, who can train on a Zero to Hero programme, designed to build confidence and self- esteem and, perhaps, lead to a new career as a Yachtmaster.

Can you help us help them 'make the right turn'? Visit www.turntostarboard.co.uk or, to 'buy a bit of boat', text TURN25 and one of £2/£5/£10
