Participants should be water confident.

If you are bringing your own equipment, you will need a buoyancy aid, which you can hire for £5 if you don't have one.

Bring some footwear (which will get wet) and appropriate clothes for the weather.

It's also a good idea to bring a small bottle of water, especially on a hot day.

You will be taken on a guided tour of the canal.

I will provide any paddleboarding tips you might want, alongside information about the canal and the surrounding area.
