Full starboard bows view of the modern sail training ship LORD NELSON at King's Dock, Swansea. The LORD NELSON is owned and run by the Jubilee Sailing Trust together with the JST’s second tall ship, TENACIOUS and are groundbreaking in their unique design which enables able bodied and disabled people to sail together on as equals. Both ships are the only ships of their type in the world which have special facilities aboard to allow the mixed ability crew to play a full and active role in every aspect of running a ship from helming and setting sails to cleaning the ship, known as ‘happy hour’. Since her maiden voyage in 1986, the Lord Nelson has taken almost 24,000 people on voyages. 9,305 of these people have had a physical disability and of these 3,611 were wheelchair users.
