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
Who can apply
Funding applications are welcome from clubs, community groups and regions with an active interest in wider canoeing participation.
