Summary

The Foundation supports projects that increase access to canoeing. Specifically, they are looking to fund:

  • Launch and landing platforms, ramps or steps
  • Improvements to pathways and accessible routes to the water’s edge
  • Designated or essential additional parking for water users
  • Works that create more sustainable access points
  • Access improvement projects that actively engage and allow water users to protect/enhance the waterway or riverbank environment (e.g. by preventing bank erosion)
  • Signage and information that promotes positive behaviour (e.g. Countryside code, “Check, Clean, Dry”, warnings of hazards or guidance on appropriate routes or trails)
  • Projects that would benefit more than one user group
  • Projects that benefit or provide opportunities to a wide range of paddlers rather than facilities limited to members
