Safety and standards
St Andrews Lakes Watersports is operated by the same long-standing team at Dover Sea Sports Centre. As a professional maritime based leisure company, the team know the potential 'nature of our beast'. Our number one priority is for the care and safety of any child or adult in-trusted to our care whilst near or in the water at any time.
With stringent Risk Assessments and Safety Policies in place and followed at all times, we have achieved and are proud to be licensed. by the Health & Safety Executives' Adventure Activities Licensing Service (AALA); Meeting and continuing to exceed the set standards of the rigorous national standards governing adventurous training activities.
Full facility and activity risk assessments are available, which we are happy to supply to you, when required.
The Royal Yachting Association (RYA) is our sports Governing Body; Governing, inspecting and monitoring everything we do.
Therefore, all of our instructors have to teach to an extremely high standard. Not only do they hold the relevant RYA qualifications but have years of experience in their specialist field.
Supervision ratios have been set by the RYA, with no more than 6 participants to each instructor. Here at St Andrews Lake we are also fortunate to have new instructors coming up through the ranks, meaning that the qualified instructor has regular extra assistance, bringing the supervision ratio down from 6:1 to 6:2.
