Our youth voyages support young people on their journey into adulthood and to make positive life choices.
To achieve this, we’ve designed a programme of three voyages of Exploration, Empowerment and Leadership each tailored to the different stages and experiences of the young people who sail with us.
Young people start their TSYT journey from aged 12 with a Voyage of Exploration where they embrace new experiences exploring the ocean environment and building awareness of themselves and others. They then progress on to a Voyage of Empowerment developing life skills, independence and building resilience. This is followed by our Voyage of Leadership with a focus on developing leadership, influencing and workplace skills.
All youth voyages can be experienced up to the age of 25. Once complete, they’ll be ready to embrace responsibility, make decisions and influence others in their communities and in the world of work.
Apply for a bursary
We believe all young people should have the opportunity to take part in a transformational voyage with us. We make this possible through our bursary programme, which provides extra financial support to those who may need it to join an adventure. This is funded via grant making bodies, individual donations and the proceeds from our adult voyages, and is open to all those who wish to apply.
Anyone who feels unable to join one of our life-changing voyages of four nights or more, due to their circumstances can apply. Support for those eligible, ranges from £165 for a four-night voyage to £300 on an eight-night voyage.
Funds are limited but we’ll always offer support where we can. Please note, you must be aged between 12-25 to apply for a bursary.
