The Paddle Safer Award is designed for anyone new to paddling, or relatively inexperienced, wanting to gain knowledge and raise awareness of paddling safely in a sheltered water environment, in or on the craft that they paddle. Typical craft would include kayaks, canoes, stand up paddleboards (SUPs), sit on tops and inflatables.
If you've completed the Paddle Start Award, this will build on your skills and knowledge to help you feel safe, confident and ready to progress to your next awards.
