The Big Paddle: Raising funds for Hospice Care and The Canoe Foundation

The Big Paddle is all about getting on the water, having fun and raising funds for charity. Whether it’s your first time or you’re a seasoned canoeist or kayaker, there is something for all.

The Big Five Tour is the focal point of the event, taking in a unique five-mile loop of river and canal starting and finishing at the Quay. A series of guided trips and masterclasses will be available to accompany the tour and the event culminates in some exciting contests including the Cardboard Canoe Race.

The Big Paddle is a non-profit event run by volunteers and we’re proud to be donating all profits from ticket sales to Hospice Care Devon and The Canoe Foundation. Click the links below to learn more.
