We need your help to get paddles in the hands of people in Ringwood

Join Us in Making Paddlesport Accessible to All!

Welcome to Paddles to the People, an inspiring initiative by Ethical Activities CIC aimed at providing paddlesport equipment for the vibrant community of Ringwood, Hampshire. Our goal is to bring the joy and benefits of paddlesport to everyone, regardless of age, ability, or background. But we need your help to make this dream a reality!

Why Paddlesport?

Paddlesport isn't just a fun and exciting way to enjoy the great outdoors; it's also a fantastic way to promote physical health, mental well-being, and a strong sense of community. Whether it's kayaking, canoeing, or stand-up paddleboarding, paddlesport offers a unique blend of adventure and tranquility that can be enjoyed by individuals and families alike.

The Need in Ringwood

Ringwood, with its beautiful rivers and lakes, is the perfect setting for paddlesport activities. However, not everyone has access to the necessary equipment. Many people in our community, especially young people and those from disadvantaged backgrounds, miss out on the benefits of paddlesport due to the high cost of equipment and lack of resources.

Our Mission

At Ethical Activities CIC, we believe that everyone should have the opportunity to experience the joys of paddlesports. Our mission with Paddles to the People is to provide free or low-cost paddlesport equipment and training to the people of Ringwood. With your support, we can purchase kayaks, canoes, paddles, life jackets, and other essential gear to create a community hub for paddlesport activities.

How You Can Help

Your contribution can make a huge difference. Here's how you can support Paddles to the People:

  • Donate: Every donation, big or small, brings us closer to our goal. Your generosity will help us buy equipment and provide training sessions.
  • Share: Spread the word about our campaign. Share our story on social media, with friends, and in your community.

Join the Movement

By supporting Paddles to the People, you're not just funding equipment; you're fostering a community spirit and promoting healthy, active lifestyles. Together, we can make paddlesport accessible to everyone in Ringwood.

Let's paddle forward together!

Thank you for being a part of this exciting journey. Together, we can bring paddlesport to the people of Ringwood and create a legacy of joy, health, and community spirit.
