Para-athlete hopes to become first disabled person to sail solo and non-stop around British Isles

Jazz Turner has a complex version of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which means she can’t bear weight on her legs and her joints dislocate. She also has gastrointestinal failure. She taught herself to sail from the age of 13, and said: “I don’t need anybody else when I am on a boat, it’s only on the water that I feel I have real independence.”
