How trusts and foundations support our work

The Andrew Simpson Foundation is proud to work in partnership with a wide range of charitable trusts and grant funders who share our vision of transforming young lives through sailing and watersports. Each year, we apply for targeted funding to support the delivery of our Charitable Activities across the Andrew Simpson Watersports Centres and our Partner Centres.

All of our funded programmes are designed to break down barriers to access, ensuring that young people, regardless of background, ability, or location, can experience the life-changing benefits of getting on the water. From boosting confidence and wellbeing to building essential life skills, these grants enable us to deliver real, measurable impact where it is needed most.

What trusts and foundations can expect from us
