Our Impact

At EAYR, we work with schools across Cambridge, Norfolk, Suffolk, Northampton, Bedford and Essex. Over the 2024/2025 academic year, we have had our most impactful year yet in which we engaged with 2,815 young people.

On a weekly basis, we run 5 sessions in Cambdridge with 3 different schools. This will often include half of the attending cohort upstairs doing land training and the other half out on the water. Depending on teh ability of each group this means we will usually have two stabel quad boats out, but if a group is particularly experienced we will send them out in smaller boats such as singles and doubles.

We have received very positive feedback from the teachers of the schools we work with, such as this statement from North Cambridge Academy teacher Adam Carter: "We have seen notable increases in confidence from some of the students, and an increased personal maturity in others that already had the confidence! I just wanted to add a little personal thanks for your efforts in setting up EAYR and creating such amazing opportunities for the NCA kids. They have genuinely loved it.". This is the resposne we strive to achieve with our program.
