A Breath of Fresh Air: Our Little Lifts Community Sets Sail on the Norfolk Broads

Bringing our community together on the Norfolk Broads

We loved hosting our Little Lifts Community Club boat trip, where we spent the afternoon on the Norfolk Broads. Each of the 12 people attending this special event had been affected by breast cancer, whether that was directly or through supporting a partner or loved one through treatment. The afternoon gave our community the chance to connect with others, share their stories, and enjoy a little time in nature together.

Setting sail with the Nancy Oldfield Trust

We started at the Nancy Oldfield Trust, where the group split into two: one heading out on their electric motorboat, White Admiral, the other on a beautiful Falmouth Bass sailing boat. The sailing boat gave those who fancied a go the chance to take the helm — for some, it was a real confidence booster as they sailed the group around Barton Broad. After an hour, everyone then came together again on the floating pontoon for tea, cake, and conversation, before swapping boats so the whole group could have a turn at sailing if they wished.

We’d like to say a HUGE thank you to the Nancy Oldfield Trust for giving our community the opportunity to enjoy such a gorgeous day of care and connection.
