Attending the club:
You can book onto our courses through the website. Courses are the best way to get into the sport, because you learn how to get on and off the water safely, and how to control the boat. When you have a bit of experience, you could try coming along to a open evening too, which is a great opportunity to come along and talk to other club members and go paddling.
Is there a specific meeting point at the address:
The Clubhouse
Equipment:
Wear clothes that you are comfortable and you don't mind if they get wet. Footwear ? You could wear neoprene shoes, or crocs, or lots of people go barefoot.
Accessibility Information:
Access to the clubhouse is either down a steep flight of steps( but we are fundraising this year to change this), or we can collect you in a open canoe from the bank of the Union Canal that is opposite to the Clubhouse. This option doesn't involve any steps, but there is a slope, and you can park on Harrison road at the top of the slope.
