A group workshop covering important SUP safety and rescue techniques.

We are running a series of SUP safety workshops in collaboration with the RNLI to bring more awareness to sea safety in general, as well as how it relates directly to stand up paddle-boarding. The aim is to provide education for paddle-boarders while also raising funds to support the great work that the RNLI do.

These workshops are perfect for all levels from beginners up to experienced paddlers.

Maybe you have bought your own board and want to be able to go out paddling with friends/family in the safest way possible?

Maybe you've had a couple of lessons and want to know what to look out for and be able to plan your own SUP trips?

Maybe you are an experienced paddler who wants to be able to safely plan for longer journeys?
