Paddlesport Safety and Rescue

Being confident on the water isn't just about knowing how to paddle it's also about knowing what to do when things don't go to plan.

The British Canoeing Awarding Body Paddlesport Safety & Rescue Course (PSRC) is designed to give paddlers the practical skills and knowledge needed to operate more safely and deal with common problems on the water. The course is suitable for paddlers using a range of craft, including canoes, kayaks and paddleboards, and provides the foundations for developing safety and rescue skills throughout the British Canoeing Awarding Body pathway.

Throughout the day, we'll explore practical rescue strategies, safety frameworks and techniques that can be used to deal with common paddling incidents. The emphasis is on developing simple, effective skills that you can understand, practise and apply when you need them.
