British Canoeing and its partners are using the World Slalom Championships, in September 2023, to shape positive social change through engagement programmes within paddlesport and the local community.
One initiative is to train female paddlers to become instructors and leaders. Former #ShePaddles ambassador Lisa Dickinson has been training the women at Lee Valley.
"We’re a little family and we’re on the same journey together,” said Lisa.
