How about Dragon Boating?
​
Whether you have recently been diagnosed with breast cancer, are a breast cancer survivor or you are living with secondary breast cancer, or you are a supporter, come and join us dragon boating.
Paddling is not only fun, it can help with lymphoedema and is a fantastic low impact sport. Our sessions are guided by qualified helms and all equipment is provided.
We are a group who like to have fun, exercise on a regular basis, and enjoy the calm waters and the wildlife around us.

June 2025 - Flower ceremony
​
We had a beautiful morning for our traditional annual service of "dotting the eyes" and blessing of our two dragon boats attended by paddlers, friends and families. This was followed by our moving flower ceremony where prayers are said for those we have lost, for those currently fighting cancer, as well as a time for reflection and hope for the future whilst we hold pink flowers aloft before casting them into the water
May 2025
We had a lot of "big" birthdays to celebrate this year - a 50th, six 60ths and a 70th so what better way to celebrate than to take to the water for the weekend! 26 of us headed to Llangollen for a fun filled time, kayaking across the Pontcysyllte aquaduct, white water rafting, walking, an amazing afternoon tea, fish and chips and perhaps a drink or two. Congratulations to all those celebrating big birthdays this year!
