Booking
How To Book
The frequency between trips can be a bit variable (to fit in with the availability of our trip leaders) but we always aim to offer a varied and action packed programme of events.
Some trips maybe subject to minimum or maximum numbers or need a certain level of ability to participate.
For the time being for all bookings please email chairman@croydonactivepaddlers.org See our facebook group to see what we've been up to recently https://www.facebook.com/groups/231679889
