Sailing Today Magazine selected the Scaramouche Sailing Trust to be their charity of the year for 2025 and it’s been a hugely successful summer for the students involved! They caught up with a few of them on their journeys into sailing, and the support they’ve received, giving a brief mention of their time at KGSC!
