Sailability Round Up November 2021
I can’t believe where the year has gone, and I would like to say a huge thank you on behalf of Sailability Hong Kong Limited to Hebe Haven Yacht Club and its members for the home provided to us in Pak Sha Wan, which continues to provide much-needed respite and accessible sailing to our sailors.

光陰似箭，轉眼間一年又過去了。我謹此代表航能香港，向白沙灣遊艇會及其會員的 支持表示由衷的感謝，讓我們的水手得以享用資源，讓更多人認識帆船運動。 透過航能香港的活動，不少獨居人士從中獲得滿足感；那些缺乏資源參與水上運動的 人，也從航能香港的活動中慢慢融入社區，還能結識新朋友的同時提高溝通技巧；參 加者不斷學習新技能時，同時也在增強心理健康。在這個充滿挑戰的時期，我們的活 動能幫助參與者增強自信心。
Our sailing programmes have provided respite and enjoyment for those who live alone and the feeling of isolation that brings. Moreover, they bring integration within our community for those who don’t have the opportunity or accessibility to enjoy inclusive watersports, increased communication skills when meeting new friends, mental wellness as we take to the lovely waters surrounding us in Sai Kung whilst learning a new skill. They also allow participants to enjoy much needed physical activity and gain higher self-esteem and confidence, during the challenging time we are all living through right now.
2021年10月至11月的活動一覽： 賽馬會善樂學校逢週二舉辦航行課程，為期12週，共有18名學生參加。這是他們參與航 能香港活動的第10個年頭。 香港女障協進會參加了由美國婦女會贊助為期三天的帆船活動。自強協會的成員亦在12 月參加了該項活動。 新鴻基Scallywag計劃資助基督教勵行會轄下兩個青年團體，讓他們參加帆船課程裝備 自己，為重返香港帆船運動總會的一級及二級比賽做準備。目前，心光盲人院暨學校 的學員已完成兩期帆船課程。
