Our charity · Vision and values

From grassroots
to Olympian.

RNWSA uses snow and ice sport to strengthen the Naval community, widen participation and help people discover what they can achieve.

Our charitable purpose

Sport that builds more than skill.

Through facilities, funding, administration and events, the charity supports serving and former-serving members of the Royal Navy and Royal Marines, and their dependants, to take part in winter sports.

Participation, tuition and competition can develop fitness, courage, leadership and team skills, while strengthening esprit de corps.

How we work

Our strategic priorities.

Responsible growth, safe sport
and a strong charity.

01

Strong, accountable governance

Maintain transparent charity governance, a skilled board of trustees, and regular review of plans and progress.

02

Safety at every level

Put participant safety first—from first-time athletes to elite competitors—with sound risk controls, training and equipment.

03

Sustainable support for sport

Build financial resilience and a dependable base for training, grassroots events and a lasting sense of belonging.

The whole Naval community

More ways in.
More room to grow.

The Association’s published vision calls for breaking down barriers, making opportunities more accessible, and supporting progress from grassroots participation through representative sport.
