BCU == British Canoe Union, a umbrella organisation covering all paddle sports in the UK, including seakayaking. One good reason for joining is to allow us to kayak on the only river we have in Godalming - the river Wey. BCU has a agreement with the owners that means that we will not get hassled by the local authorities.
