Organised by Wetwheels FoundationThe Wetwheels Foundation offers a unique opportunity for disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages - including those with multiple, profound and complex impairments - to access the water.
Wetwheels was conceived and founded by disabled yachtsman, Geoff Holt MBE. Our first boat, Wetwheels Solent, based in Portsmouth, made her debut in 2011.
We have a fantastic team of runners taking part in the London Landmarks half marathon in April 2023, raising money to fund magical experiences on the water for disabled people.
A Wetwheels experience challenges self-perceptions, extends horizons and opens up new opportunities. We ensure full wheelchair access to the boat - including a ramp to the steering position and adapted steering controls.
We continually innovate through new technologies, and improve our experience through the excellence of our teams and feedback from participants. We ensure a sustainable operation through a range of income streams, funding and support.
By 2025, we aim to support 12,000 people every year to participate in a Wetwheels experience across the UK, with the widest reach and awareness possible.
* Charities pay a small fee for our service. Find out how much it is and what we do for it.
