Freedom on the Water – Regardless of Ability
Sailability Gold Coast
Sailability Gold Coast is a voluntary, not-for-profit organisation providing a safe and friendly environment for people of all ages with disability to participate in the sport of sailing or other ‘on-water’ activities.
We welcome people of all ages as volunteers (experienced sailor or not). At Sailability Gold Coast there is a volunteer role for everyone and if you’re keen you may even become a sailor.
Volunteering
Why do 60 or more of our SailabilityGC volunteers present themselves to SYC Hollywell each Tuesday for 48 weeks of the year for a day on the water with 80 or more clients?
Why do 30 or more volunteers present themselves again on Thursday each week of the year for more sailing, maintenance work or training?
