Rudyard Sailability is calling on Staffordshire Moorlands District Council to support their application for planning permission to build a boat store at Rudyard Lake.
As a member of Rudyard Sailability, which provides a unique and valuable service for disabled people to learn to sail, I can't stress how important this facility is.
Suitable storage is vital if Rudyard Sailability is to improve and enhance its service and provide opportunities to more disabled people. The current boat storage is in a poor state and totally inadequate. In fact it's an eye-sore which could be replaced by a new building that complements the local surroundings.
Without the new boat storage, it's hard to see how Rudyard Sailability can continue its fantastic role. It would be a shame if, after all the hard work of so many volunteers, the scheme had to end because of a lack of suitable storage facilities.
Rudyard Sailability is a very special facility which Staffordshire Moorlands District Council should be proud of and should support. It is developing into a national resource which is helping to promote Rudyard Lake and this part of England.
The location and design of the boat store will provide greater independence, security and comfort to the Rudyard Sailabilty operation, and will fit naturally into the landscape, blending in with the existing Victorian-style, lakeside buildings.
