What are Aspire Partners?

Our Aspire Partners play a vital role in supporting instructor development and strengthening Scotland’s watersports community. Through collaboration with RYA Scotland, Edinburgh Watersports, Galloway Activity Centre and Findhorn Watersports help deliver opportunities for continuing professional development (CPD), knowledge sharing and networking, empowering instructors to develop their skills on the water.

Based at Port Edgar Marina, Edinburgh Watersports is a leading watersports centre offering opportunities to develop skills in sailing, windsurfing, paddlesports, and powerboating. As an Aspire Community Partner, the centre supports instructor development, knowledge sharing and CPD, helping to build a confident, skilled and inclusive watersports workforce across Scotland

As an Aspire Partner, the centre helps create opportunities for professional growth, shared learning and the development of instructors who can deliver safe, engaging and memorable experiences on the water.
