NEW wheelchair-friendly facilities will be unveiled at Otley Sailing Club later this month.

The club has used a £50,000 Sport England grant to create a wheelchair accessible wet room in its clubhouse, at Weston Water. It has also installed a slope-free access path and anti-slip floor, along with new doors and changing room benches.

A ceremony to open the facilities will be held at 2pm on Sunday, March 22.

Otley Sailing Club trains people with disabilities to sail.
