Community Chest

Post date: Oct 07, 2011 3:18:26 PM

Barry Youth Watersports was recently successful in a Community Chest application for funding towards essential safety equipment. We now have 18 Buoyancy Aids for use with dinghy sailing, canoeing etc a set of four 150N lifejackets for use when powerboating or going further afield and an ICOM VHF marine radio so that we can talk to other water users.

We are planning to do a press announcement at the end of October, when we know where we will be operating in 2012 but already the Radio and a lifejacket have been of use at the National School Sailing Association Team Racing event.
