BRADFORD on Avon Sailing Club is staging an event in the town centre tomorrow to attract new members.

Members are inviting residents to obtain more information at their stall in Lamb Yard between 11am and 3pm.

They are also holding an open day for new members on Sunday, May 13, between 11am and 3pm at the Sailing Clubhouse on the River Avon behind the Beehive Field.

Elanor Pick, the club’s social secretary, said: “Sailing is a lot of fun and gives people the chance to learn new skills.

“We are inviting residents to come along and try their hand, give it a go, and see what’s on offer.

“We will be opening up the clubhouse on Sunday, May 13, and will be running a two-day beginner’s course in June.

“Newcomers don’t have to buy a boat, we have our own fleet, and they will have the opportunity to meet new people.”
