This summer, #DSActive worked with the RYA to run three sailing festivals for people with Down’s syndrome. After successful events in Cornwall and London the final session was in Liverpool. Participants could choose between a variety of activities, including outdoor climbing 🧗, indoor #teambuilding activities and a ride on the speed boat.
For many, this was their first time out on a boat and it did not disappoint! 🛥 It was a very successful day (even with the addition of a slight hurricane) and we look forward to many more adventures on the water!
