Turn to Starboard uses sail training to support Armed Forces personnel affected by military operations from its base at Falmouth in Cornwall. Launched in 2014, the charity believes sailing has a therapeutic effect on those affected by military operations and has helped many gain RYA sailing qualifications to help start new careers in the marine industry. The charity recently reached a major milestone after providing 2,500 sailing opportunities to injured veterans and their families.
