Cobnor Activities Centre Trust


Description

Cobnor Activities Centre is located within Chichester Harbour. This beautiful spot is easily accessible by road and lends itself to the range of activities and outdoor courses that we have on offer.

We are specialists in RYA sailing courses and powerboat courses, BCU canoeing and kayaking courses.

Our aims are:

* To help educate young people, to develop their confidence, independence, teamwork, creativity, determination and communication skills

* To give young people in the local area the opportunity to experience challenging outdoor activities, both water and land based.

As a result, around 30,000 sessions involving young people from over 60 schools, youth groups and individuals are carried out at Cobnor Activities Centre every year, and around 400 of these individuals are disabled or disadvantaged.
