Had fun driving the boat for Sailing for Disabled last week 👍🏼

This is a fantastic attraction for all wheelchair users. Pete’s passion and care for the disabled really shows in his work and I enjoyed his company from start to finish. It is great to come across people who have a real passion for helping people with disabilities and I highly recommend this little trip. The half-mile boat trip runs Tuesdays only from 11am until 2pm

Pete owns an accessible, fully electric boat that can carry up to three wheelchairs and two crew members.

There is a ramp on the front of the boat which winds down onto the slipway for wheelchair access. Wheelchairs  need to be pulled on backwards for easier access when leaving the boat. Pete or a member of the crew are happy to help with this. The boat will take you along the canal with lots of things to see.

This service is free to use however, if you wish to make a donation then you can.
