We have a Facebook group! It's for club members only. If you want to join it, have a word with Mark Fairbrass.

The door is secured by a code and a key. The door code is only available from secretary@bradbingcc.co.uk (Wendy). Do not disclose the code to anyone - not even if you think they're a club member. After any breach of security, we change the code and take disciplinary action.

Keys can be bought from Wendy for £5. If you decide canoeing's not for you, please return them.

You should feel safe, respected and your equipment should be safe. Don't tolerate anything less. Tell Jason Duckman or Wendy if bad stuff is happening. If they're doing it to you, they'll be doing it to someone else too and we need to know so we can stop it.

Make sure your photo's of people uphold their dignity. Ask people's permission before you put their image on Facebook or other web-site. The club site is not a public place: you can't take photo's at will.

Your membership card is stored in the index on the white table. Put your emergency info on the back so if there's a problem, we can give your card to an ambulance crew or ring your other half etc. Allergies? Next of kin? Medication? Pop it on. It's not utterly private but it's quick and when we need it to help you, we'll really need it.

Brought a non-member to paddle with you? Get them to sign in and PAY THEIR £2 FEE.

If you want to borrow a club boat to use off site,  book it out. There's no charge for our boats. Check that it's available and then let Wendy know to secure your use.

Dogs should be on a lead like the sign at the grounds entrance says. We can't have dog whoopsies on the river banks where we do rescues, carry boats and stand to coach. Also, there is nowhere on site to safely leave dog poo so you'll have to take it away with you. Having said that, we like dogs.

Our coaches are volunteers or British Canoeing staff. They should only be doing what they've agreed to do. So if you want to join a session, make sure it's agreed before you get changed. If you want to paddle nearby, be self sufficient. Coaches are responsible for their group, not for you.

To store your own boat at the club, contact secretary@bradbingcc.co.uk. Members' boats only and it's £25 per year per boat.

If we have to tell you how to respect others' equipment, perhaps you should join a different club.
