“This was such a great day for our children. For some it was a window to another world one where they are encouraged to and did flourish as a result. The smiles on their faces are the most valuable aspect of the day. Thank you.”

“Second course here. I already recommend Rockley to prospective instructors. Nothing to add other than keep doing what you do now”

Gavin King

“I didn’t want to go to uni and felt that a hands-on apprenticeship was something that I would really benefit from. I enjoy everything outdoorsy, and this opportunity which included watersports really appealed to me.”
