Our Mission

Enabling disadvantaged and disabled children and adults to change society's perception of them and the way they regard themselves by providing the tools to build confidence and self-esteem.

Sailors with disABILITIES is committed to changing society's perception of people with disabilities. Harbour sailing, ocean racing, the youth program and the inshore and coastal training program are just some of the ways of achieving this. Our vision is to take ownership of our circumstances and create vehicles to demonstrate what can be achieved.

SWD's mission is to heighten community awareness of the disabled. SWDs members believe that disabled people are capable of participating in active and responsible roles within society and should be treated as equals.

SWD is here for the long haul and we WILL make a difference.
