Its three weeks before the start of our adventure and we have already collected £265 for the
RNLI via our
charity web page on
'Justgiving'. The diverse nature of our day jobs makes it quite difficult for us to meet regularly but we managed a short paddle together along the
Bridgewater Canal on Saturday morning.

We have also managed to enlist some support from the
canoeing and kayaking industry. Thanks to '
Peak UK' we will have some lightweight clothing from their
'Tourlite' range.
'Kayaks North West' have teamed up with
'P&H Custom Sea Kayaks' as trip sponsors and will be supplying us with 2 kayaks for the voyage and will welcome us to their premises beside the canal at
Runcorn at the end of our first day. They took particular interest in 'Kayak Coast 2 Coast' because the unique nature of the journey and our involvement in their local waters.
