The Paddle Trust supports projects that increase access to canoeing by:
- increasing or enhancing existing public access points to water for all forms of paddlesport
- creating launch and landing sites
- protecting and enhancing the natural blue spaces
Key Criteria
They are looking to fund:
- Public launch and landing platforms, steps, ramps or other physical access points
- Improvements to pathway and/or accessible routes to the water’s edge
- Signage or information that promotes positive behaviour (Countryside code, “Check, Clean, Dry”, take your litter home etc).
- Designated or additional parking for water users
- Works to address erosion and/or create more sustainable access points
- Helping protect the waterway environment
- Multi user projects that can benefit more than one user group
- Public projects rather than private members-only facilities
