Fundraiser of the Month

With nearly 40,000 ocean miles under his belt, veteran sailor Peter Edington will continue to fundraise for The Foundation in 2010, helping restore sight to those who are needlessly blind.
Enjoy a fun day on the harbour with Peter Edington Sailing

After sailing from England to Australia with his family, Peter set up a sailing school on Sydney Harbour and now teaches around 120 people how to sail each year.

Peter is passionate about helping those less fortunate than himself and is keen to raise awareness and show how much we can achieve, if we choose to.

Peter Edington Sailing has worked with The Fred Hollows Foundation for the past five years to raise much-needed funds to fight preventable blindness. In 2010 he will be offering dedicated 'Fred Hollows Foundation Sailing Days' on Sydney Harbour.

Supporters who donate $150 to The Foundation will be rewarded with a place on Peter's monthly 'Fred Hollows Foundation Sailing Day'. Participants will experience the wonder of Sydney's magnificent harbour, maybe sail under the Harbour Bridge, enjoy lunch by the Opera House, go halyard swinging, and swim off one of the harbour's great beaches. You might even find time to learn to sail!

Individual or group bookings are welcome, so bring along a group of friends for an even more enjoyable day out!

If you're interested in joining Peter to learn to sail and help restore sight, email him.
