Principal activity
Accounts 2025All income received by the Community Interest Company has been applied to the provision of the CIC's aims. We started as an organisation that provides news, information, and signposting to those on State Pensions and/or State Benefits. We are still active in this field. The Association of Pension & Benefits Claimants CIC has launched a project called SAILING WELLNESS to help those suffering from mental health issues. By teaching people to learn to sail using RC (radio controlled) sailboats we plan to keep sufferers safely on shore while teaching them the theory and practise of sailing. The principal advantage of this is that we do not have to take risks going afloat with people such as ex. military who can have panic attacks if helicopters fly overhead. We have sourced some beautiful locations free from powerboats, jet skis and other noise. Anglia Water/ Affinity Water have offered us their support and they have a large portfolio of reservoirs near Colchester and in Central England; for example, Graham Water and Rutland Water. Getting people sailing helps break the cycle of rumination where people go over and over ‘what went wrong’. Our cohort, having learned basic skills, can (if they wish) transfer to larger boats, dinghies, or yachts with a good basic understanding of sailing theory and practise. We have been growing our expertise in this field. Dovercourt Fire Brigade have given us the use of their fire stations conference room for training and nearby is the Dovercourt Ma
