Young crew member raises money for OYT Scotland!

After sailing with us on an individual’s voyage this summer, one young crew member was so inspired by her time on board that she set herself a challenge to fundraise for Ocean Youth Trust Scotland and help other young people enjoy their own adventure under sail.

Using her creative talents, Gracie (age 14) set up a face painting stall at the campsite she stays at over the summer months. Welcoming children and families who were enjoying their summer holidays, Gracie raised an amazing £725 for OYT Scotland! She has chosen to put it towards our Assisted Berth Scheme which provides financial support for young people who would not otherwise be able to come on our voyages.

A huge thank you and well done to Gracie for her marvellous effort!

If Gracie has inspired you to set up your own fundraising challenge, we’d love to hear about it. Contact fundraising@oytscotland.org.uk or give the office a call on 01475 722 722.
