BCPD Trust Raft building & Kayaking away day

BCPD Trust a Luton based charity organised a Kayaking & Raft Building event to help young people in Luton to become more confident and encourage more volunteering in the community. Team building events like this also help our volunteers to develop their skills so that they can help more children in Luton.

This years event on 7th August was held at an outdoor event in Kempston near River Great Ouse. Our volunteers, tuition class students and other children from Luton were all participating at this event.

The funding was awarded by Luton Council’s Social Justice Unit, through BLCF, as part of the Luton Citizens’ Fund.

The team arrived at the outdoor event around 12pm and had light lunch before starting the activities at 1pm. The aim was to work together as a team and complete all activties and challenges by 4pm. 

Everone enjoyed the events throughly and at the end many participants jumped in the river and went swimming. Each person had buoyancy aids which meant you do not have to be a swimmer to particpate.

BCPD Trust a Luton based charity has been inspiring young people into Education, Careers, Business and Sports since 2011. This event is an example of some of the different ways we are helping young people in Luton.
