Canoeing can be a hobby, passion, sport, or even a job for all.  Paddling allows family and friends to experience exercise and challenge that is therapeutic for both mind and body.  The sport is so diverse that there is literally something for everyone, regardless of your age or ability. More importantly, canoeing is pleasurable, fun and a great way of accessing the outdoors; exercising and gaining independence. Together, able bodied and disabled can share all aspects of the sport.

Contact our Disability Officer, Clarisse Smith by email or on 07702 954949.


What is Paddle-Ability?

To promote and develop canoeing for disabled people, the British Canoe Union & Canoe England use the concept and term Paddle-Ability to address the issue of participation in canoe sport and canoe recreation.  Paddle-Ability focuses on the individuals' ability in canoeing rather than disability.
