Feedback from the last event in 2024 included: "What a fantastic opportunity - the children were very nervous but they were soon put at ease. It was a fabulous experience and they were so excited. Brilliant crew. Thank you", whilst another family added, "Such a friendly club! We lived our Swallows and Amazons dreams. We'll be back!"
