Volunteering opportunities
Crawley Mariners is a volunteer-run club – we have lots of regular opportunities to get involved and make the a success.
- Tuesday Volunteer Group – read more about their invaluable work to keep the club facilities well maintained.
- Junior Saturday Clubs – parent/guardian helpers ensure the event start/finish on time, run the galley and allow the Instructors to focus on instructing.
- Instructing – New Dinghy and Powerboat Instructors are always welcome – if you’d like to learn more, get in touch with our Training Principal.
- Committees – Main management committee, Training & Junior sub-committee and Sailing sub-committee
We have also now launched a new section of our website for ad-hoc tasks that you can help with. These range from simple gardening to more complex DIY or improvements to our facilities to help Sailability initiatives.
