Events for this weekend have been added to the calendar. This week we are looking at running a morning session at Sowerby Bridge for paddlers who have expressed an interest previously and Pugneys in the afternoon.

Sessions are being run but with limited numbers per session. To assist with social distancing measures, we will be running small sessions of no more than 5 people plus leader (in line with guidance from British Canoeing). 

Morning river sessions:

By appointment only                                                 

Afternoon Pugneys sessions:

Session three: 1.15 – 3.15pm
Session four: 1.30 – 3.30pm   

Changing rooms within the main building are not presently available, so please arrive at the session prepared as best as possible and be prepared to change at your car / outside. For current up-to-date information about current amenities at Pugneys, see the page below:

Also please remember anyone – paddlers or spectators are NOT allowed past the wooden fence without a buoyancy aid – sorry there are no exceptions to this rule.

Depending on the wishes of the group and the weather, we can either paddle around the lake or stay in the sheltered area.

Costs for borrowing equipment are £6.00 for the river sessions and £8.00 per person at Pugneys, slight difference in cost due to a charge the club have to pay to Pugneys for each paddler on the lake.
