Before you join

Adult beginners: Prospective members with their own kayak or canoe can use the contact form to request a free guest trip or attend a social event. The site describes a GBP 15 annual family membership, but it gives no year. Confirm the current fee and outing before paying or travelling.
Junior paddlers: The club calls itself family-friendly and says the displayed GBP 15 fee covers a lead member and immediate family. It publishes no junior age range, parent-attendance rule or safeguarding detail. Families should ask which trips suit their children.
Equipment: Paddlers need their own kayak or open canoe. The club says it has no craft to lend, although it may suggest where to buy or hire one. Ask about personal safety equipment and transport arrangements before joining a trip.
Accessibility: Trips move between rivers and canals. No checked page explains step-free arrival, changing facilities, transfer help or adapted craft. Tell the club what support you need when asking about a guest outing.
Where the club paddles: The undated programme names the Wye, Lugg, Teme, Monnow, Severn, Thames and Brecon Canal without meeting points. No fixed map is shown. Get the exact start, finish and transport plan from the trip leader.
