Overview

We have many different Clubs and services for young people, families and adults in the local area, including: an Open Access Youth Club (with Supported access for young people with additional needs); two after-school Sports Clubs for young people with a range of disabilities; an Inclusive Family Club and Inclusive Adult Canoe Club; and a Club for adults with mental health issues.

We have a small, 5meter high, 10meter wide, outdoor rock climbing wall on site. Here, a group of young people are climbing up the wall and learning how to hold the rope for each other.

Here is a group of around 40 young people playing a game in their kayaks, in the sun, where they run across each others boats.

This is one of our 3 narrowboats. It is 60 foot long and has an outdoor seating area and an inside cabin.
