Current Projects

We are currently fundraising for projects in Lancashire, Derbyshire, Suffolk, Kent, Thames Ditton and East Sussex, with others including in Scotland and Northern Ireland. We know that there are disabled people waiting to use the new boats that we supply and we work hard to meet this ever growing need. If you would like to make a donation towards the costs of providing new Wheelyboats please click here. Further details of our projects include:

Warspite Sea Scouts, River Thames

The Thames Ditton based Warspite Sea Scouts launched their new first V17 Wheelyboat in March 2020, enabling disabled scouts and members of the community to access and enjoy a myriad waterborne activities for the very first time. The boat made a fundamental step change in the scout group’s ability to provide water-based activities that everybody, irrespective of disability, can participate in fully. Now five years on, we are working with the sea scouts again for a second Wheelyboat, to help them meet an ever growing demand for access to the water for disabled users.

Castle Semple

Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park, Castle Semple Centre and the Wheelyboat Trust have joined forces to fundraise for a fully accessible Coulam V20 Wheelyboat to provide more disabled people with powerboating and powerboat training, pleasure boating and angling at the outdoor activity centre in Renfrewshire. The Wheelyboat will enable people with disabilities to access and enjoy water-based activities who previously couldn’t as demand is outstripping availability at this hugely popular site.

Rye Harbour Sailability

The Wheelyboat Trust and Rye Harbour Sailability (RHS) are collaborating to raise funds for a new wheelchair accessible V17 Wheelyboat for RHS to operate at Rye Harbour in East Sussex. A fully accessible Wheelyboat will give all people, irrespective of disability, the same opportunities of experiencing water sports and outdoor activities, especially in terms of reducing isolation and anxiety and improving wellbeing and the impact on both mental and physical health.
