Go Paddling Month 2021

What is Go Paddling Month?

Running from 1 July to 31 July, Go Paddling Month 2021 is the perfect opportunity for paddlers old and new to take to the water and be part of the biggest paddling event in the UK.


Who can get involved?

In short, anyone. With taster sessions for those new to paddling, as well as development opportunities and ideas for independent adventures, everyone can join in with Go Paddling Month.


From clubs, delivery partners and organisations to casual paddling groups and individuals. We want you all out on the water, enjoying the best of paddling.


What can I do to take part?

This year, we’ve got a whole month of paddling on the cards, rather than just the week. Why not try something different?


Organise a paddle cleanup.

Learn a new paddling discipline.

Get out on the water with a new social club.

Meet a friend for a paddle.

Get creative with Go Paddling Month and do something new!


Why get involved?

Go Paddling Month is great for people new to paddling. Go big, go small, go with friends, go on your own…just go for a paddle! We just want you to take to the water and tell us about it.


There are prizes to be won for everyone who takes part. But we know your main motivation to join in will be your love of paddling!


Pootle on tranquil waters or whizz down heart-thumping rapids. Whatever your idea of relaxation is, make sure you take time to do it this Go Paddling Month.
