Escape from modern day life, switch off the screens and get active outdoors, as hundreds of venues across the UK offer free or low cost opportunities to try sailing and windsurfing this May.
The family friendly ‘RYA Push the Boat Out’ (PTBO) open days offer something for everyone, with a variety of both on-the-water and shore-side activities, as well as BBQs and entertainment for the kids. And with more and more of us looking to lead an active and healthy lifestyle, this could be the new outdoor activity you’ve been looking for.
As well as positively impacting physical and mental health, outdoor activities like sailing and windsurfing have also been shown to aid character development in young people. The broader benefits include; independence, creativity, teamwork, determination, communication and confidence; providing youngsters with the attributes to help them succeed in life.
But is it for me? PTBO events are your chance to find out! Have a go in a welcoming, safe and low-pressure environment - no experience or equipment necessary -come along and give it a try!
