Recipient Org: Description Clydesdale is the oldest but most vibrant, diverse and progressive club on the River Clyde. The club was established in 1857 as a not-for-profit unincorporated association and, in 2015, became a Scottish Charitable Incorporated Organisation (SCIO), reflecting the club's development ambitions. The Club is run by its members on a voluntary basis. The Club's mission is to open up the sport of rowing and the River Clyde to all by removing barriers. This will allow the wider community to enjoy and share the social, psychological and physical benefits of being a part of a diverse river community. In doing so, this will celebrate the history of the sport on the Clyde whilst working for the future. The Club's values are: 1. Solidarity 2. Open and welcoming 3. Supportive and respectful 4. Fun and diverse 5. Fulfilment We will ensure support is available for people to achieve their maximum potential regardless of activity (coaching, volunteering, rowing). The Club is currently in a major period of development primarily relating to its premises, the West Boathouse. Club members have explored and created an Equality, Diversity and Inclusion plan reflecting their commitment to reaching out to diverse groups to encourage them to access the river and West Boathouse and benefit from activities that will encourage exercise, increased confidence, mental wellbeing and involvement in a supported and safe environment. A great deal of work is on-going over the next two years by volunteers from within the Club to build effective relationships with local groups such as Fare Scotland and PEEK and many others including LGBT, minority, and seldom heard groups on the River. This work will put the Club's mission and values into practice. Coronavirus restrictions have had a massive impact on us as we have had to close our facility and stop physical activities. We are having to reimagine ourselves as a virtual facility in order to still work on our aim and objective in this new period of living for our members and participants. We have created a Facebook page to deliver streamed sessions. We host Zoom interactive sessions including physical activities as well as social sessions like quizzes. We have sources online training through our national governing bodies to skill up our volunteers and coaches. We are reaching in to a new frontier that Clydesdale has never had to consider in its 163 years in which only ever closed for World War 2.
