Andrew Simpson Foundation

 

About the Andrew Simpson Foundation

Now in our fifth year, we are inspired by the life and legacy of Olympic Gold and Silver Medalist sailor Andrew "Bart" Simpson MBE who passionately believed that everyone should have the chance to try sailing and enjoy the many benefits that it brings.

Absolutely everything we do is driven by our belief that all young people have the ability to excel and succeed in life and work. We believe that the challenges of Sailing and Watersports do this by promoting health and well-being and building essential personal skills.

Our vision is to build a global and engaged community of accessible sailing and watersports and we look to deliver this by providing thousands more opportunities to get people out on the water.

We deliver a range of key charitable activities, further enabled through fundraising, events and research and we continue to grow to deliver these to as many people as possible.
