Seas Your Future (SYF) – www.seasyourfuture.org – is a UK youth development charity which owns and operates the tall ship Pelican of London primarily as a sail training vessel for young people, in the northern hemisphere during the spring and summer months around the UK and Europe, and during the autumn and winter months on a six-month transatlantic educational voyage. We meet our core objectives through:

• Sail Training programmes enabling young people to discover their abilities, values, passions and responsibilities in situations that offer adventure, challenge and the unexpected. 
• unique Maritime Careers opportunities to learn about life on-board, safety at sea, seamanship, navigation, engineering, teamwork and much more.
• voyages for studying Ocean Science, changes to the marine environment and climate, to young people who care passionately about safeguarding the planet. 
• ensuring that voyages are open to all young people by seeking to subsidise costs for those that cannot pay.
• Expanding sail training capacity and specialist voyages over the next five years, to meet increasing demand.

We work in strategic partnership with charities and community organisations, education providers, vocational trainers, port authorities and local councils, to offer a unique and life-changing experience to all who sail with us.
