Work Free Paddlers

A social group of retired paddlers who get out on the water every Tuesday — on Essex rivers, estuaries and the sea. Good paddling, good conversation and a good reason to keep moving.

Retired paddlers Peer-to-peer Every Tuesday All year round
Social first

The group is as much about the people as the paddling — time on the water, a chat, and a shared day out.

Every Tuesday

Tuesday is fixed. We paddle throughout the year and choose a suitable location around Essex.

Varied water

Our paddles take us onto local rivers, estuaries and the Essex coast, depending on conditions and the route.

Good for you

Regular paddling keeps us active, gets us outdoors and gives us a dependable social connection each week.

Peer-to-peer paddling.

Work Free Paddlers is a social group rather than a guided or coached paddling service. We paddle together as peers, with each paddler responsible for their own skills, equipment and decision to take part.
