Take a look at our 2023 adventures with the Bristol Cutters. A huge thanks as always to our sponsors.
The ever-popular pilot cutter ships returned to Guernsey’s waters again in 2017 thanks to the ongoing success of the Bristol Cutters Week. Local children were given the opportunity to experience the thrill of sailing, enjoy some rich maritime history and learn new skills.
A massive thank you to the sponsors this year which enabled the children to Set Sail. Guernsey Harbours, The Guernsey Emergency Services, Appleby, Bank of Butterfield, IAM Advisory, Ravenscroft, Canaccord, RBSI, Generali, Odey Wealth, Brooks MacDonald, Rocq Capital and Deutsche Bank.
We were very humbled to receive the below letter and thank you card from The Sunflower Project after The Set Sail Trust treated a group of five families with ten children to a weekend in Herm. All of the children who attended have all experienced the death of a parent so it is a much needed getaway for them.
