Price per day = £40 per child / £5 concessions (proof of eligibility required). Our Holiday Schemes are subsidised through the generosity of our funders and facilities hire. Places are non-refundable, non-exchangeable and numbers are limited – pre-booking essential to avoid disappointment!
We also offer a preferential rate of £15 per child / per day for group bookings made via local youth service providers. A limited number of free places are available for referrals from frontline support agencies to ensure that our services are accessible by all.
Holiday Schemes are run by our friendly and supportive team of accredited Paddle UK instructors, qualified staff, canal boat skippers and volunteers. All staff and volunteers are enhanced DBS-checked.
We aim to make our Holiday Schemes as inclusive as possible and welcome youngsters with mild to moderate additional support needs, where safe and practical. Please contact us in advance to discuss any additional support requirements and we will do our utmost to accommodate you.
