Since the beginning of the project, the collaboration between Ecosails and Astus, a non-profit organization dedicated to improving the quality of life of people with intellectual disabilities and/or cerebral palsy, as well as that of their families, has stood out. The main objective of this alliance is the social integration and the promotion of the inclusion of these people in society.
Ecosails, a brand that aims to differentiate itself through its commitment to sustainability and excellence in the manufacture of articles made from recycled boat sails, has joined forces with Astus, an organisation that handles sail cutting. By collaborating with Astus, we are not only contributing to the development of work skills and the well-being of people with intellectual disabilities, but also promoting a more inclusive and equitable society.
Who is Astus? Founded in 1967, Astus is an association declared of Public Utility by the Council of Ministers, which seeks to achieve the family and social integration of people with intellectual disabilities and/or cerebral palsy. Its comprehensive approach ranges from prevention and early care to guardianship and housing, through education, employment, leisure and culture. Astus is a member of Plena Inclusión, a federation of organizations in favor of people with intellectual disabilities and cerebral palsy.
At Ecosails, we are proud to join Astus in their important mission and look forward to continuing to work together to build a more inclusive and fair future for all.
