Great News From The Trustees

To all: Members, Volunteers and Supporters

Re: Rudyard Sailability’s Proposed Boat Store

It is with great pleasure that the Trustees can now confirm an Agreement between, Rudyard Sailability, Rudyard Lake Ltd and British Waterways has been signed that will secure the future of our charity for at least the next 50 years.

All parties have worked extremely hard to reach this agreement and have further promised to jointly support Rudyard Sailability in their quest for a new Boat Store. This agreement is the beginning of a new era for Rudyard Sailability, with both Rudyard Lake Ltd and British Waterways support we can now look to the future with much more confidence and security.

More great news is that our New Planning application was successful and we now have full planning permission to go ahead with the New Boat store. However we were unable to get a further extension to the Enforcement Notice, this means that we have to vacate the current boat store by the 21st of July 2010. Temporary arrangements are being sought to enable us to both finish our season and honour the events already booked.

We now have the mammoth task of raising the funding in time to start building the new Boat Store in October, failure is not an option as we would have to wait 12 months for the water level to again subside and would have to cease the activities that we provide to so many living with disability.

Can we ask everyone at this time, to please explore both fund raising and sponsorship opportunities and forward your ideas to Dennis, Mike or Jackie.

Many thanks to all of you, who have contributed, helped or supported Rudyard Sailability in the past and we hope that you will do so in the future.

As always “We couldn’t do it without you”
