Crusing anyone? How about on an accessible Tall Ship thatis recruting a crew with disabilites right now? After experiencing the vibrant atmosphere of the exciting city of Buenos Aires, Lord Nelson will be setting sail for Recife in Brazil. Following the same trade winds of ships sailing to Europe from South Africa and Asia, she’ll be stopping at some of the remotest and most beautiful communities in the world – and all of these are outposts of the former British Empire. First calling in to Tristan da Cunha – the most remote inhabited group of islands in the world, and then St Helena - Britain’s second oldest overseas territory, you’ll be following the same sailing routes of ships in centuries past, who used these as important stopovers before heading off to Europe. From there you will head off to Ascension Island which was an important naval and air station during World War II, providing a base to the Allies during the Battle of the Atlantic, before setting sail for your final destination – Recife in Brazil. Known as the ‘Brazilian Venice’ because of its many rivers, small islands and bridges found within the city – it really is the perfect place to end this epic 55-day voyage. jst.org.uk/our-tall-ships/lord-nelson/
