Members can often be found paddling or using the gym at other times throughout the week and will usually give free advice.

Please note the Locations page has the club Distances chart on it. Plus for you hardy winter paddlers here's the moon phase, so you know how much light there'll be if training at night!

We have a wide range of kayaks and canoes so it's a great place for beginners. Plus paddles and buoyancy aids. These are free for members to borrow.

Also see the Races Section here and Slalom here - a great way to consolodate and build your skills, lots of beginners and young folks are at the events - it's really inclusive.
