Biblins Youth Campsite complete funded works to access River Wye

The Canoe Foundation is pleased to announce that the grant funded works at the Biblins Youth Campsite on the River Wye have now been completed.

Back in February 2021, the Woodcraft Folk organisation applied for a grant to make improvements and repairs to the popular launch site on the River Wye. The Biblins Youth Campsite is a site used by organised youth groups to engage young people in outdoor activities and bushcraft. The Canoe Foundation agreed £5,000 towards the project which looked to make improvements and repair damage caused through flooding.

The work was completed over the summer season. This included repairs to a flood damaged canoe launch installed a few years ago.

Take a look at the before and after images below to see exactly what these improvements mean to the site.

We rely on donations to improve places to paddle across the UK.  Please consider donating a one off or regular amount to our Foundation to help us continue with our work. We want to ensure everyone has sustainable, effective access to our waterways and coastline. Thank you. Donate here >
