The Isle of Wight’s Suicide Prevention and Intervention organisation has this month welcomed a new community partner.
Ryde-based Venture Sailing has become a community partner to SPIIOW, agreeing to give those who access SPIIOW’s services the opportunity to learn new skills, team build and boost their self-confidence with a view to getting them back into working life.
Sarah Adams of Suicide Prevention & Intervention IOW says:
“This is such a great opportunity and a very kind gesture from Andy at Venture Sailing, not only becoming a Community Partner with SPIIOW, and believing in what SPIIOW do, but also to give an opportunity to people in our community who can learn not only about sailing, but also to work as part of a team.
“This opportunity will make a big boost and a massive impact on the lives of the people we come into contact with”.
Andy Kinnaird of Venture Sailing says:
“We are really pleased to be in a position to help in a small way to a growing problem and hope our services will have a real positive input to the guests we take sailing. We look forward to working alongside SPIIOW”.
Venture Sailing has also agreed for SPIIOW to auction off one of the sailing adventures to help raise much-needed funds for the organisation. More information will be available on the SPIIOW website and Facebook page in due course.
Anyone interested in learning more about the organisation or joining the on-call frontline team can contact SPIIOW at [email protected]
