About Us
read moreThe aim of the Nancy Oldfield Trust is to provide the opportunity for people who are disabled or disadvantaged to enjoy a day out on the water, try new activities, improve their self confidence and increase their environmental awareness. Anyone who is disadvantaged, or has a disability; physical or emotional, temporary or permanent, regardless of their age can enjoy sailing, canoeing, fishing, bird watching and motor boat cruises. You are very welcome to bring family members and carers with you!
read moreThe Charity was the brainchild of Richard Kenyon. His idea was to provide a centre and facilities where anyone with a disability or who was socially disadvantaged could experience and participate in water-based activities on a day or residential basis. His mother Nancy and father Oldfield had supported the setting up of a Trust so that his ideas could come to fruition and accordingly the bungalow in Neatishead, known as "Roanoke", was purchased to provide a base for the organisation. A Trust Deed was written and the Charity was formally registered in 1984.
