Set three world records

The Long Paddle 2021 Actions

We hope, by attempting this massive endurance record we will inspire the people of this island nation and beyond. The Long Paddle legacy is to create the worlds first gamified, interactive water safety app. The app will have specific locations so you can play the app on the way to the beach! It will also have all the essential water safety and drowning prevention information to stay safe at the coast or inland waterway.

Only through your SPONSORSHIP can we facilitate The Long Paddle world record attempt and create this revolutionary app.

Through DONATIONS The Long Paddle 2021 will be supporting 7 different charities. These donations will be collected by ‘Just Giving’ and gift aid collected where available.

If you would like to SPONSOR or DONATE please follow the ‘Donate’ tab or email us at info@thelongpaddle.co.uk.
