Fundraising
In addition to course fees which cover the running costs, TS Rebel – a registered charity - needs to raise extra funds to:
- cover the maintenance and repairs encountered during the sailing season plus the annual refit
- keep all safety equipment up to spec.
- train volunteer staff
- keep the operation fully accredited and insured
- prepare for planned capital equipment replacements.
TS Rebel runs a number of fund raising events throughout the year including the TS Rebel Challenge Yacht Race and the Annual Rebel Dinner. However it also welcomes donations which could include:
- individual donations
- corporate sponsorship – It costs £149 to send a cadet on a five day course, offering young people a life changing opportunity. Sponsoring a cadet can also help businesses meet their CSR objectives
- assistance in kind – This could include yachts, foul weather clothing, safety equipment, transport, paint, ropes, sails, electronics, annual servicing, surveys etc.
