The “trips planning pod”, as it is called, is responsible for organizing and developing a range of canoeing activities for the members of the Charity and in some special cases non-members.

The pod comprises a number of qualified open canoe and kayak coaches who get together approximately once a quarter to review past events and to plan the events and trips for the year ahead.

It has direct links with and representations on the Charities’ Seneschal Committee, (reponsible for co-ordinating all aspects of the Charities day-to-day activities), and promotes the approved events, trips and courses via the Charities’ website, Facebook and Twitter accounts.

  • BCU star award training and assessments
