Cracking weekend running a Paddle UK Paddlesport Leader training, working alongside Fearless Adventure ! 🛶🌊
We had a fantastic mix of experience across the group, with plenty learned, ideas shared and lots of great discussions along the way.

☀️ Saturday brought amazing weather, along with some lively Force 3 winds — perfect conditions for giving the team a real taste of what it’s like to lead confidently as a Paddlesport Leader.

🌧️ Sunday may have been a little damper, but it certainly didn’t dampen anyone’s spirits! Everyone got fully stuck into rescue skills, rounding off a brilliant weekend on the water.
Great effort from everyone involved! 👏🛶

A great weekend with 7 members from Clitheroe Canoe Club on a Paddle Sport Leader/Touring Leader Development course. 🛶

The Lakes once again provided a brilliant classroom for both the open water and river elements, with enough wind and rain to add a bit of realism to the rescue practice and leadership scenarios!

Everyone got stuck into every part of the weekend, asked plenty of questions, and worked hard throughout, which made it a really enjoyable couple of days.

If your club or organisation is looking to get qualified, wants to organise a multi-day paddling adventure, or is after something a bit more bespoke, get in touch 🙂

Huge congratulations to John, Lacie, Holly, and Bethany on passing their Paddlesport Instructor qualification! 🛶👏

They threw themselves into every aspect of the course, from the practical sessions on the water to the discussions and learning off it. Throughout the course, they demonstrated the enthusiasm, knowledge, and attitude needed to become excellent paddlesport instructors.
It's been a privilege to see the start of their instructing journey, and I'm excited to watch them grow and develop in the years ahead.

A big thank you as well to Chris from . It was great working alongside him and combining over 30 years of paddlesport experience to support the team.

Thinking about becoming a Paddlesport Instructor? Get in touch—I'd be more than happy to help you get started. 🛶😁

Okay… not technically a gadget 😅 But I wouldn’t be without my pram bag and cup holder on multi-day adventures!
The bag fits perfectly under my yoke, and the cup holder clips on anywhere — keeping all the essentials within easy reach: drinks, snacks, suncream, and of course… coffee ☕️😁
Honestly, it’s the little things that make the biggest difference!
