Leila is a class B gaff rigged cutter.
Leila sails with young people from a wide range of backgrounds from 12 to 25 years of age. In most cases these young people will have no previous sailing experience.
All young people, regardless of circumstance or ability should have the opportunity to realise their true potential in order for them to live healthy, fulfilling lives – making a positive contribution to their community and to society in general. This is the vision of those behind Leila, whose mission is to inspire those young people through the challenge of adventure under sail. Residential voyages aboard Leila provide a uniquely powerful and extremely effective environment for the personal development of young people from a diverse range of backgrounds.
