Funding A Trip - Young People Aged 15-25

All our young voyagers are encouraged to fundraise to cover the cost of their adventure. This generates a feeling of personal ownership and a sense of achievement even before your voyage starts.

It may seem a daunting prospect at first but with a little dedication and enthusiasm, raising your voyage fee is very achievable.

The cost of a 10-day voyage for each young person is on average £1,200 but you will need to raise in the region of £1,500 to ensure you have enough for insurance, for travel to and from the ship and for spending money.

Funding Application

Young people may apply in writing for funding from the Adventure Under Sail charity. We want to know how you intend to raise funds towards the voyage fee for your chosen voyage.

You will also be encouraged to complete a journal of your voyage, a copy of which will be sent to your sponsor, along with a record of individual achievement completed by the ship’s Captain or the ship’s Training Officer.

A copy of this record is provided to enhance your CV for future employment applications.
