On what would have been Andrew’s 48th birthday, we encourage you to raise a glass today.

An incredible sailor, a loving husband and father, and a great friend - Bart was passionate about helping others.

We are delighted to share that last week we held a very special dinner, in aid of fundraising for the Andrew Simpson Foundation.

@AinslieBen @IainPercy @trinityhouse_uk Over 120 of our closest supporters and partners came together in collaboration to enable our mission to further engage diverse communities of young people of all ages and abilities, to access watersports and explore future maritime career pathways.
