Sail Training Trust > Mates of the Tucker

Welcome to our support crew!

Mates of the Tucker is a support programme for youth sail training programmes. These funds go into a separate bank account which is only used for sail training voyages.

Each seven-day trip accommodates 10 young people and costs a total of $1,500 per person. Our goal is offer the trips at a maximum of $750 to the young person's family, and raise the funds for the balance through fund raising activities or surplus (if any) from trading operations.

Where hardship exists and funds permitting, we also provide a scholarship programme using Mates of the Tucker donations. Whether you wish to make a small cash donation or commit to a more long-term engagement with the ship, via a monthly direct debit your contributions will all be welcomed.
