We were delighted to receive a wonderful, personal Christmas message from Dame Ellen MacArthur on behalf of the Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust.

The Trust have had a challenging year with restrictions forcing their on-water activities at Largs Yacht Haven to be moved online, and many of their funding channels temporarily closed. But we were delighted to offer support to the Trust this year and help them weather the storm, we can't wait to see them back under sail in 2021.

"Just a thank you to everybody at Largs Yacht Haven. We're really proud of our connection to Largs, and our sailing trips that take place there, and it's been a real shame to not be on the water in 2020 but we're so so grateful for your understanding. Thank you."

"It has enabled us to spend our time working out how we can best support young people in recovery from cancer and, indeed, doing so through virtual sessions, training, online hang-outs, book clubs, pen pal sessions - everything we could. But your understanding has made a huge difference to our operations this year and we look forward to being out on the water with you, once again, in 2021. Thank You"
