Beginner
The club says complete beginners can try one of the club boats and that its team can advise newcomers on where to start, kit needs and buying a boat. Its 2026 training page also describes RYA dinghy Level 1/2 courses for newcomers and junior Saturday Club sessions for youngsters who want to start learning to sail.
Training
The club says it is an RYA-accredited training centre offering RYA dinghy Level 1/2 training, Level 1/2 powerboat training and First Aid training. Its 2026 training programme lists junior Saturday Club dates and two-day RYA Dinghy Level 1/2 course weekends.
Taster
Current taster evidence is limited: the 2026 junior Saturday Club says participants aged 7-17 will be given an initial taste of dinghy sailing before continuing with instruction. The homepage's May 4, 2026 open day has already passed, so it is not treated as current availability.

Suitability

Juniors, families, and accessibility

Juniors
The club runs a 2026 Saturday Club for younger sailors aged 7-17 who want to start learning or develop as new dinghy sailors, with low-cost supervised training and potential RYA youth Stage 1 or Stage 2 certification. The homepage also points family and friends to nearby Welsh Water visitor facilities.
Access
Official accessibility evidence is partial rather than a full access statement. The members page says the club has a Challenger Class single-handed trimaran designed to allow disabled sailors to sail and race independently, and notes it is suitable for sailors with low upper-body strength and balance. No detailed clubhouse, parking, toilet or step-free access information was found on the checked official pages.
