Remembering first-time trips: the excitement, the impact, and the nerves too!
Show Notes

Ahead of the 2022 season starting later this month, we're taking it back to those first times, before you know what the Trust really is. 

You know there's sailing, hopefully you've seen some photos and videos, maybe you've even listened to this podcast.

There are nerves too. It's four days away from home, it could be the first time staying somewhere else after having cancer, there could be worries about navigating the boat with an amputation.

Dionne and Millie think back on their first trips (three years ago and twelve years ago, respectfully). They share similar stories of this wonderful, impactful, inspiring experience - with those nerves everyone else goes through as well! 

And it's not long 'til we do a whole load of first times all over again. We can't wait!
