Hwylio hygyrch

Our accessible sailing sessions in Cardiff Bay are designed for adults with learning disabilities and additional needs.

With a trained team, adapted boats, and a calm, supportive environment, sailing is a great way to enjoy the outdoors, build confidence and try something new.

Diolch i’n partneriaeth gydag Awdurdod Harbwr Caerdydd, mae ein sesiynau hwylio hygyrch yn cael eu cynnal bob blwyddyn trwy’r gwanwyn tan ddiwedd yr haf.

Beth yw accessible sailing?

Accessible sailing helps people with learning disabilities enjoy being on the water in a way that feels safe and welcoming.

With sessions running every Wednesday throughout the spring and summer, our accessible sailing teaches participants some basics of sailing in our boats.

Our boats are stable and suitable for beginners, and sessions focus on enjoyment, confidence and sensory experiences as well as basic sailing skills.

Mae ein sesiynau hwylio hygyrch yn weithgaredd poblogaidd ym Mae Caerdydd. Mae sesiynau'n cael eu defnyddio’n bennaf gan bobl y mae Innovate Trust yn eu cefnogi yng Nghaerdydd, Bro Morgannwg a Rhondda Cynon Taf.

Mae digon o fywyd gwyllt o gwmpas yr afon ac ynddi hi i bobl ei werthfawrogi, ac mae’n gyfle hefyd i weld Caerdydd o safbwynt gwahanol.
