We are hoping to be able to offer public trips once again from the second half of May, but this will depend on government guidance at the time.
Most of our income comes from providing these public trips, but we have not been able run these for most of the past year. However, we still have bills to pay – insurance, licence, safety inspections, etc, even when there is no money coming in!
You can help to keep Still Waters afloat so that we will still be here in the future to offer trips to the public, schools, disadvantaged groups, etc.
We now have a GoFundMe page for anyone who would like to help to keep us us going until we can generate our regular income once again. Please follow this link if you wish to make a donation. Many thanks.
