🚨 Urgent Appeal from Swansea Watersports 🚨
For 13 amazing years, Swansea Watersports has been the go-to hub for thousands of kids and young people in Swansea and South Wales, offering life-changing experiences in sailing, kayaking, windsurfing, and more. But now, this cherished centre is facing closure by the Welsh Government, and we need your support!
Nestled in the Prince of Wales Dock, Swansea Watersports isn’t just about making a splash—it’s about providing opportunities, education, and a sense of community for everyone involved. They’ve worked tirelessly to partner with schools and youth services, ensuring that children from all backgrounds, especially those from disadvantaged areas, gain life skills and qualifications through exciting outdoor activities.
The closure would leave a huge gap, with no dedicated water sports provision along a 140-mile stretch of Welsh coastline. This centre isn’t only about sport; it’s been a beacon of hope for many youths, offering positive opportunities, promoting wellbeing, and hosting national competitions that draw tourism and recognition to Swansea.
Swansea Watersports is urging the Welsh Government to reconsider and help find a sustainable solution. The government’s stance is that the dock area is needed for new infrastructure projects, but options for relocating the centre remain on the table.
Your voice can make a difference! Let’s rally together to ensure that thousands of young people continue to benefit from the invaluable service Swansea Watersports provides. Share this post and spread the word to support this incredible community resource! 🌊💪
