ABOUT

SAIL AWAY

E’ ampiamente riconosciuto che partecipando allo sport, I bambini sono esposti a vari benefici a livello mentale, sociale, emotivo, fisico ed emotivo. I bambini con disturbi dello spettro autistico (ASD) non fanno eccezione. La vela è uno sport che offre opportunità uniche a bambini e giovani con ASD. In quanto può far aumentare la fiducia in se stessi e l’autosufficienza e praticare interazione sociale con I coetanei all’interno di ambienti protetti.

SailAway mira a favorire l’inclusione sociale e a sviluppare le capacità personali di bambini e giovani con ASD, incoraggiando la loro partecipazione ad attività sportive di squadra come la vela.
