SUMMARY:7 Mar 2025 CPD Workshop: Learn about…Bannau Brycheiniog Reservoirs
DESCRIPTION:Second of two repeated workshops – first on Mon 10 February \n\n\n\nIn conjunction with Dwr Cymru Welsh Water (DCWW)\, the aim of this workshop will be to enable instructors who use reservoirs; particularly those in Bannau Brycheiniog National Park; to both appreciate them better and be able to educate their clients about them – but will also serve to build a stronger SWOAPG relationship with DCWW and help us secure continued access to reservoirs for paddlesport. This ‘pilot’ workshop\, if successful\, could become a regular fixture and perhaps even a requirement for users of the Bannau Brycheiniog Reservoir Passport Scheme. The workshop will take the form of a ‘short day’ (9.30am-2.30pm)\, based at Pontsticill and including a presentation\, a reservoir visit and a tour of the water treatment works. Each workshop will be restricted to a maximum 12 participants. Book ‘tickets’ using the buttons below. \n
