The day will be led by Ed Bassett of EB Adventures who is a qualified canoeist and instructor and has worked with blind and partially sighted people before. Ed will be assisted by a small team. Ed will teach basic techniques, and hot and cold drinks and a sandwich lunch will be provided.

This is a trial day for the Finland canoeing trip that BWBF are planning for 07-14 July, but you can attend the trial day even if you don't intend to go on the Finland holiday. The cost of the trial day is £15. If you do go to Finland, this will be deducted from the cost of the Finish trip.

For more information, please contact Frances Fielding on 01622 754757, or frances@blind.org.uk.

Please register your interest before 16 March.

Frances will be able to arrange for you to be picked up at Maidstone station between 09:45 and 10:15 if you let her know.

If for any reason you can’t make the 21st, there is a possibility the day could be repeated on the 22nd March if at least four people are interested. Again, please let Frances know.

If, nearer the time, the weather looks to be awful for the 21st, Frances will arrange another day.
