Severn Paddleboarding event

Paddleboarding is currently the fastest growing sport in the world today - and once you've tried it for yourself you'll see why. Severn Faculty have organised a chance to try paddleboarding for yourself. This is open to members with the ability to swim in open water with a life jacket and will take place at the West Country Water Park. A group of up to 10 individuals with varying levels of experience are invited to join us at the West Country Water Park in Bristol. This event is free for RCGP Members and costs £25 for non-members.

Archery, axe throwing, BBQ and 'smore'

Following the huge success and amazing feedback on our axe throwing and fire lighting social last year, we're once again teaming up with the 7th Stirling (Beechwood) Scouts for an evening of archery, axe throwing and a delicious BBQ with s'mores.
