On 29th September, I was invited to a Presentation Evening for Devizes Canoe Club on the K and A Canal. There, the Club's members demonstrated their very impressive on-the-water skills and all against the lovely backdrop of a gorgeous sunset over the Kennet and Avon Canal.
The Devizes Canoe Club had become the 100th British Canoe Union Club to attain a national standard that recognises their commitment to young people and the sport of canoeing.
I felt privileged to attend this celebration of the Club's award of the Sport England Clubmark; just acknowledgement of the Club's work and the fact that I am not the only Devizes to Westminster link! I was also able to test my "paddling power" on the Boating Alliance stand at the Conservative Party Conference.
