Challenge Wales
Challenge Wales is a charity dedicated to providing young people aged between 12 and 25 years old a chance to develop their self-esteem and life-skills of team working and communication through the experience of sailing.
This is achieved through sailing Challenge Wales, a 72-ft round-the-world yacht and the largest sail training vessel in Wales.
Challenge Wales works with schools, groups and young people's organisations but also offers big boat sailing experiences, a variety of sailing trips including milebuilder opportunities and RYA sailing qualifications for both young people and adults.
Book a Sailing Trip
Fancy a sail? Join us for a big boat ‘Challenge Experience’ day or an overnight trip. Visit Lundy Island, take part in a race, book a competent crew course or charter the boat with friends or clients. No sailing experience necessary.
Volunteers
We run entirely with volunteer help and goodwill. If you have a couple of hours to spare, a couple of days or even weeks we will be really happy to have you onboard. From crewing the boat to maintenance and running exhibition stands we are always on the lookout for help.
Schools & Young People
Join us for a day sail or up to a week and learn valuable social & personal life skills. Whether it is a school activity trip, field trip, alternative curriculum or Duke of Edinburgh award scheme.
