There will be four workshops held in the following locations from 10am-4pm:
Weds 19 Feb
– Alyn Waters Country Park
Weds 26 Feb
– Loggerheads Country Park
Weds 4 Mar
– Llyn Brenig
Weds 11 Mar

Booking is essential
- places are limited to 15 at each venue.
Drinks, lunch and goodies will be provided.

Apart from the obvious kit such as a buoyancy aid/personal flotation device, paddle and paddlecraft(!), what should you carry with you on the water? It can be tricky knowing what to take, and how to carry it on your boat/board. Here are some suggestions to help make sure you have the right kit to hand when you need it.
