Sailors with disABILITIES exists to offer opportunities to people facing disability or disadvantage. Using sailing as a tool, SWD regularly acts as a catalyst for change, where individuals develop a more optimistic outlook and enjoy personal growth and improved life outcomes. Since its inception in 1994, SWD has taken 42,000 people sailing, and competed in 18 Sydney to Hobart Yacht Races. Since 2003, SWD has also held the world record for the non-stop and unassisted circumnavigation of Australia. SWD relies on a platform of volunteers to run its programs. Through participation, volunteers raise their life satisfaction and wellbeing while learning new skills and giving back to society. SWD's programs are inclusive, supportive and challenging. The focus is on working as a team to find solutions to problems. Regular participation and connection with our mentors raises self-esteem and self-confidence, and improves life skills.
