Safety and rescue training

We can run safety and rescue training to suit your needs. Foundation level and standard white water safety courses are accredited by the BCU. Single day and advanced courses can be arranged to suit.

Foundation safety and rescue

This course will provide you with the key safety and rescue skills required to operate safely in a sheltered water environment and to be able to deal with common emergencies.

Who is it for?

It is suitable for anyone who operates in or around sheltered water, not just boaters. Many parents of paddlers are now taking this course to give them greater confidence when observing from the bank.

This course is a pre-requisite for the level 1 certificate in coaching paddlesport.

White water safety and rescue

Who is it for?

The WWS&R training course is designed for all paddlers operating in a moderate to advanced white water environment in either kayak or canoe. Unlike the ‘old’ BCU safety course, this one is also designed for anyone working near swift water, for example, bank based coaches and parents.

This course is a pre-requisite for 4 star assessment and level 3 coach.
