Friends, Amis, Amigos, Amici,

We are thrilled to announce the date for our Paddle Boarding Event in our Yorkshire region.

Dan and his wonderful team at SUP Active Yorkshire are waiting to welcome us to this exciting experience on Wednesday 25th September 2024 at Ellerton Lake, a popular 60 acre water sports venue in Richmond, North Yorkshire.

We will meet at 12.30 pm in the carpark.

With their expertise you will be surprised how quickly you will be on the water. They pride themselves in providing an inclusive, safe and fun learning environment and are really passionate about ensuring a great day out on the water. All their instructors are ASI and British Canoeing qualified.

There is a choice of boards from (large with out-riggers, extra large or multi person boards) and seating on the board is provided in the form of specially adapted wheelchair frame.

It will be up to the instructors on the day to match you with the most suitable board.

Wetsuits, buoyancy aids and life jackets will be provided but it is still advisable to bring along a change of clothing and footwear in case you get wet.

The car park has compacted gravel and there is ramped access to the water. Help will be given to transfer on and off the Boards, if required. There is a disabled toilet. Tea and coffee provided on site and less than five minutes down the road is a lovely accessible cafe and farm shop.

Please note: The lake fees have been covered so when asked, just let them know you are with Danny of SUP Active Yorkshire for paddle boarding and this is the case.
