'the advancement of public participation in sport'

Angus Canoe Club is multi-disciplinary and provides taster sessions, winter pool sessions, monthly river trips and some training courses to members. Pool sessions take place from October to March each year in Websters Sports Centre, Kirriemuir. Pool sessions recommenced again in October 2025. Angus Canoe Club is affiliated to Forfar Sailing Club. This arrangement provides access to changing and toilet facilities, a small kitchen area, and access to another form of water sport. From May onwards regular evening trips on local rivers and lochs takes place under the banner 'Improvers'. These are open to anyone but with an emphasis on those leaving the pool sessions, the Improvers remain very popular with members. Regular requests for support in the form of water safety at local venues for national open water swimming events and triathlons continued to form a considerable portion of club income.

Objectives: The organisation's purposes are to advance public participation in the sport of canoeing by providing access to facilities and equipment to the local community by: 4.1 providing relevant coaching and training for individuals with an interest in canoeing. 4.2 fostering an interest in and participation in canoeing amongst younger people. 4.3 encouraging a general awareness of canoeing in Angus and the surrounding area.
