Join us at Gowanbank for a week of adventure, personal growth, and, most importantly, fun!

Whether it’s your first time in a canoe or you already feel at home on the water, this residential is for you. Throughout the week, we’ll build skills in both canoeing and paddleboarding, with plenty of time to grow in confidence and ability.

In the evenings we’ll all join together to reflect on the day, along with some much-needed downtime to socialise with others on the residential and make lasting friendships.

What’s included?
• Full programme of activities throughout the week
• All equipment needed for activities
• Accommodation in shared en-suite rooms
• All bedding
• All meals – from lunch on Monday to lunch on Friday
• Meets all criteria for the Gold Duke of Edinburgh’s Award Residential section

Gowanbank has great transport links. Hop on a train or bus to Kilmarnock. There are regular trains to Kilmarnock from Glasgow and Carlisle. From Kilmarnock, catch Bus 1 through to Darvel/Newmilns which will drop you just a few minutes away from the centre.

A great opportunity to push your boundaries, make new friends, and create lasting memories!
