Reva Video
I’m writing to tell you about a fantastic opportunity at Reva Scout Sailing Centre

Reva is a 10 acre reservoir close to Hawksworth near Ilkley Moor.

Yorkshire Water have generously leased this reservoir for scout watersports activities and there is a superb Clubhouse and Changing Rooms, Lecture Rooms, Kitchen and Activity Room

There is also a Bo’sun Store and storage for all sorts of watersports equipment.

The centre is generously provisioned with many types of boats, sailing dinghies, kayaks, canoes and safety boats.

It really is a dream facility for anyone keen on watersports and a brilliant asset for the Scout Association and for all local Scout Groups.

Unfortunately, we are missing one crucial ingredient. We urgently need lots more volunteers to enable more Scouts to be able to enjoy these adventurous sports.

So this is a plea to anyone associated, (or even not currently associated), with Scout Groups in Bradford, Keighley, Wharfedale, and neighbouring districts who has any watersports skills to step forward and help out with providing sessions for Scouts in this area.

To anyone reading this please forward it to family members or anyone you know who may have suitable watersports skills or experience and who may be able to help us out.

We plan to offer some refresher training and instructor training to get any volunteers up to standard, and used to the equipment. 

This training will take place on the following dates.

24th of March 2024.

28th of April 2024.

26th of May 2024.

So if you or a friend or relative know how to sail, kayak, paddleboard, canoe, bellboat , raft or drive a power boat then we’d love to hear from you.

For anyone, without any previous watersports experience, your assistance would also be appreciated, we hope to organise some training for you later in the year.
