CLADS (Chew Lake Association of Disabled Sailors) has been in existence since 1991 and was started by two very enthusiastic sailors from the main sailing club at Chew Lake, Bristol.
Initially an old boat (a Challenger class Trimaran) was donated to us by the Royal Yachting Association (Sailability) which was a welcome start and over time the club has gone from strength to strength with members, helpers, boats and facilities all growing.
- Sailing cancelled for August 22nd 2026
Due to a shortage of helpers sailing has been cancelled for 22nd of August.
- 2026 Sailing Season
The dates for the 2026 season have now been published. The lake is now full, let’s hope it stays that way this year.
We are looking forwards to seeing everyone down at the lake soon.
