Funds raised at the very successful inaugural BBWP held in Cape Town last year were used to purchase an L26 sailing boat  - named ‘Homero’ – now berthed at the False Bay Yacht Club and used for teaching practical sailing skills to the Lawhill Centre learners .  As sailors all know, upkeep is expensive and part of the funds raised this year will be allocated to the maintenance of the boat.  

Come and help less advantaged youngsters get to sea by raising funds for this inspiring marine programme!  Spread the word, share this with your friends.

·       The SATS General Botha OBA Bursary Fund provides the infrastructure within which Marine Inspirations events can happen in South Africa.  The Fund provides financial and mentoring support to students studying towards a career in the marine industry.  This support is provided in particular to students at the Lawhill Maritime Centre who are undertaking Tertiary Education towards a career at sea.  www.gbbursaryfund.co.za


·       The Lawhill Maritime Centre has, for the past 21 years, helped students from financially disadvantage backgrounds embark on successful careers in the maritime industry by providing them with an industry-focused education while still at school.  Lawhill receives no state funding and is reliant on the industry and individual support to fund its operations and provide student bursaries.  www.lawhill.org
