A CASH boost has seen a disabled girl’s sailing dreams come true.

Madison Haynes, 16, has quadriplegic cerebral palsy.

She has always dreamed of setting sail with her siblings at Burnham’s Royal Corinthian Yacht Club.

After receiving a vital £1,000 donation from Barratt and David Wilson Homes, Madi can finally set sail in comfort alongside her siblings.

The money was donated to buy specialist equipment as part of the company’s community fund scheme.

Parents Sally and Bryan applied for the funding so they could get a pontoon hoist for the Corinthian club.

Sally said: “The support of the sailing club and local community, including David Wilson Homes has been amazing.”

“Madi loves being on the water, and now with the imminent installation of the hoist it will make it so much more comfortable for not only Madi but other disabled sailors to access their boats and the water.”

Madi’s friends and family previously hosted fundraising events to buy the RS Venture Connect, a boat specifically designed and adapted for the disabled.

Having met their goal, Madi’s family enjoyed several sails over the summer.

While the boat made Madi’s dream possible, they still needed the hoist so she could sail in comfort.

The equipment is designed to help Madi and other disabled sailors get on and off the boat more easily.

Madi’s family began sailing at Burnham in 2017.

The family were recently invited to Barratt and David Wilson Homes’ divisional office to meet with managing director Mark Cotes and receive the cheque.

Mr Cotes said: “We’re thrilled to have been able to support Madi’s family in their fundraising efforts through our Community Fund scheme.

“It was wonderful to receive the letter highlighting Madi’s story, and we hope the £1,000 donation will contribute to many years of successful sailing.

“As the country’s largest housebuilder, we are committed to creating a positive legacy.”
