In the next two episodes of Off The Water we look at how the easing of restrictions is allowing more activity on the water has affected clubs and training centres in Scotland. In the first part our hosts Nikki Stewart and Jack Mitchell discuss the current updates to guidance and catch up with training centres beginning to enable activity.
Recognised Training Centres (RTCs) provide RYA Training in a safe environment with successful learning experiences available across a range of water-based activities.
Nikki Stewart, RYA Scotland’s Coach Development Manager is in conversation with Sami Poole of Port Edgar Watersports; Fiona Andrews of Tighnabruaich Sailing School and Richard Hermon of Galloway Activity Centre providing some insights into the challenges the centres face now as they begin their return to training.
Commercially, like many other businesses, the centres have been adversely affected by lock down, in what is a limited season. Together they reflect and come to terms with the changes they must make to enable their students and customers to get afloat safely again, with some positives going forwards.
