Disability Awareness Training

We are pleased to announce that our new Disability Awareness Training for our crew members will be ready to be launched next month (April). We need this programme in order to ensure that our disabled members are continually provided with the highest standards of care and safety so they can have the best experiences of sailing on Pride of Man III.

The first attenders will be our salty sea-dogs, our skippers and mates, whose years and nautical miles of experience will contribute very positively to the programme. After this we will be asking our newest crew members and any other crew who feel they would benefit from the training to complete it.

Keep a lookout for further postings on our progress here!
