Bronwen joined the project having worked on traditional vessels and Tall Ships in Australia and previously volunteered with Trinity Sailing. She currently sails as bosun on Provident, a 95ft gaff ketch operating both adult charter and youth sail training voyages. 

Always seen with a smile on her face, Bronwen has enjoyed a busy refit period, an extensive sailing programme with Trinity as well as rotations with Sea-Change, learning to sail and operate a Thames Barge and time spent the team at the Cutty Sark. 

"I'm really excited to be presented with the opportunity to expand my knowledge and skills in heritage sailing as a young person with aspirations for a sailing career...".

Life at Trinity Sailing Foundation

Trinity Sailing Foundation is a registered charity dedicated to supporting the personal development of young people, using the medium of offshore sail training on traditional vessels. It enables wider appreciation of local maritime heritage by enabling people to experience life under traditional sail through sailing holidays, charter and sailing courses and learn about the history of the vessels.
