Dear Members,
Unfortunately this winter we are not able to run pool sessions.
Having been in contact with venues, we were offered very limited timings on weekends only. This made it particularly difficult for our coaches and assistants to run these sessions.
Keep posted to the club page or Facebook for any winter kayak trips.
