The award-winning Oceans of Hope Challenge, created for people living with MS, is going to Bewl Water in Kent this August.

Brighton based Robert Munns, who lives with Multiple Sclerosis himself was inspired by his experience sailing across the Pacific Ocean and English Channel with the organisation Sailing Sclerosis, on ‪board a yacht named Oceans of Hope. He created the Oceans of Hope Challenge in 2015 to give others with the condition a life affirming experience.

In Robert’s latest challenge, he will be leading a weekend of sailing and watersports at Bewl Water outdoor centre. Oceans of Hope participants will make a splash in accessible sailing boats and canoes; the team cater for everyone with MS who wants to try their hand at sailing, despite their ability level. Participants will stay in the watersports centre’s fully accessible accommodation and facilities during their experience.

Robert Munns said: “I am amazed how the Oceans of Hope Challenge is developing, along with its potential to bring an element of hope to so many lives. It is my honour and privilege to be responsible for making sure that it is supported, and it continues in the spirit it was conceived.”
