Friday 3rd July 2020 will see the CRASH Charity Sailing Cup return for a 5th consecutive year. Hosted on board Sunsail’s new fleet of luxury Sunsail 41.0 yachts, this exclusive event will raise money for the construction industry charity CRASH.
In 2019 the event raised over £7,000 for CRASH and for 2020 we hope to see a larger amount raised. The day will allow a perfect opportunity to network with other professionals in the industry and enjoy some friendly competition on the water with a series of matched fleet races.
For every yacht that enters, a charitable donation is included in the package, meaning the regatta will not only be fun for the industry, but will raise substantial funds for a fantastic cause.
About the charity
CRASH is the construction industry's charity that helps homelessness charities and hospices with their construction projects - creating places that care for people when they are at their most vulnerable.
CRASH does this by sourcing pro bono professional expertise, building materials and awarding cash grants generously donated by the construction and property industry.
Well designed and expertly built environments have a positive effect on how we all feel and behave. This is especially true for people who are homeless, vulnerable or sick and those who care for them. To find out more about CRASH please visit www.crash.org.uk
