ADVENTURE CONTINUES: 2026 PARTNERSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Support the “HOAC on Tour” Season at Rickmansworth Sailing Club
OUR JOURNEY: THE BRIDGE TO BROADWATER LAKE
For over 50 years, the Hillingdon Outdoor Activities Centre has helped young people build confidence, resilience and life skills on the water. In 2020, our historic home closed to enable the HS2 project, and while we await our permanent return hopefully at Broadwater Lake, we are delivering a ‘HOAC on Tour’ season from Rickmansworth Sailing Club.
For corporate partners, this season offers something rare. A community sponsorship that also delivers a genuinely practical benefit to your workforce.
Our 2026 holiday programmes do not just provide great outdoor experiences for children. They also offer reliable full day wraparound childcare from 8.30am to 6.00pm, designed to support working parents during school holidays. Through partnership, businesses can unlock this benefit for their teams, easing childcare pressure while showing real social value
THE IMPACT
Each week, we welcome up to 30 local children to the water. Your sponsorship directly subsidizes the professional instruction, equipment, and logistics required to maintain our high standards during this transition.
