The Tall Ships Youth Trust have announced that special bursaries are available for young people aged 16-25 to take part in the ASTA Tall Ships Challenge Atlantic Coast Series along the east coast of the USA. Giles Pritchard Gordon, Tall Ships Youth Trust Trustee, has generously donated a limited number of bursaries of up to £500 (US $ 1,000) per person for young people aged 16-25 to take part in the Voyages detailed below. This means that on some voyages, young people may only need to find the cost of the flight! What a great opportunity to take part in the American Tall Ships Challenge!
