Your Herefordshire can reveal that Hereford will soon have its very own Paddle Board club!

Kevin Davies set up the Hereford Paddle Board Club Facebook Group and posted the following earlier:

“Good evening are you looking for a new hobby that is also about making friends, improving your balance and fitness.

“If so I am setting up Hereford Paddle Board Club to get more people to take up the fastest growing sport in the UK.I have had long Covid for over a year and it has effected my balance, breathing and confidence.

“If you are interested in joining are you find out what it’s all about please visit our page and look at the events tab.

“All are welcome as age is not a barrier to this sport as you can make it as easy or hard as you wish.

“I have negotiated a place to buy a board and have also negotiated a price to use the Hereford swimming baths on a Saturday between 13:00 and 15:00.Pop along on Friday night to the meeting on the events tab and we can discuss the sport and how easy it is.”

What is Paddle Boarding?

Stand up paddle boarding is a popular water sport activity that involves standing up on a board and using a paddle to make your way through the water. You’ll use your arms while standing or kneeling to propel you and your board forward.
