Disability Kayaking

Overview

Adventure Activities for All Abilities (4A’s) is a club for people with physical and learning impairments, offering opportunities for all abilities to become active through sport and for their parents/carers to meet in a social, friendly and welcoming group. During the Summer 4A’s offer taster sessions in canoe and kayak, which supports our core activity of Paddle-Ability flat water kayak racing at Holme Pierrepont, Nottingham. Once paddlers become more competent, they can become a member of the racing team, meeting three times a week for either gym or water training sessions. 4A’s continue to offer support during the winter by holding fun indoor activities, including boccia, new age curling and tabletop games as well as social events such as our annual Christmas meal. Our achievements have been recognised at the Newark and Sherwood Sports Awards – winning Junior Team of the Year and Junior Disabled Sportsperson. We were also awarded The British Canoeing Impact on Equality and Diversity Award in 2019.
