💚 Come paddle with purpose. Celebrate. Give back. Make a splash.
Places are FREE but LIMITED!
Dress for the weather! (Don’t forget to wear something green!) Be comfy! Gloves help to grip the paddles and pick up rubbish. Towels and wipes are also a good idea as splashes are unavoidable.
Equipment will be provided but bring your own litter picker if you have one!
All children MUST be accompanied by an adult.
Bring a drink - it's thirsty work! 🥤
