It's that time of year! We're asking all members of the paddlesport community in Wales to take 20 minutes to share your thoughts with us about Canoe Wales, paddling in Wales, and what we can do to better represent your interests and provide the kind of services you value.

You can fill out the survey online here.

We estimate it will take no more than 20 minutes of your time, and as a special reward we're offering one free membership to be awarded at random to one lucky winner - all you need to do is include an email address when you complete the survey. The survey will be open until 31 January 2018 .

This year's survey includes the following sections:

  • About your paddling - to help us understand more about our members and your interests
  • Your membership - to help us understand what you value about Canoe Wales membership and how we can do better
  • Coaches and leaders - to help us improve the services we offer to our amazing coaches and leaders
  • Priorities for the future - to give us insights to help us develop our new strategic plan, to be launched in 2019
  • Membership review - to collect your thoughts about the proposed changes to membership categories
  • Equality monitoring - to help us understand more about the profile of our members so we can ensure that all members of the community have the same opportunities to participate in paddlesport

Your thoughts are vital to shaping our plans and developing our services - so please do take the time to participate. And if you're the lucky winner, your next membership renewal will be on us!
