Our club helps develop skills, build confidence & achieve success.
Our members work towards British Canoeing Paddle Awards and Personal Performance Awards in kayaks and canoes – both on Shadwell Basin and on the River Thames. We also run an induction programme for beginners once a month.
We regularly organise trips across the UK throughout the year, including our annual Christmas paddle on our home River Thames.
