Westminster Boating Base Information

Westminster Boating Base is an independent charity teaching dinghy sailing, powerboating, kayaking and canoeing in central London. (Registered Charity No. 299412) Located on the river Thames in a secluded riverside park, our spacious function and meeting rooms with riverfront balconies are available to hire as a venue for parties - both corporate and private - conferences, seminars, wedding receptions and other events. Our Story... We receive no long-term funding, grants or subsidies and rely upon our fundraising efforts, donations and other external support to deliver watersports sessions to schools, community groups, adults and young people many of whom are disadvantaged and hard to reach. We have many volunteers who give their valuable time to help us in this worthwhile endeavour. Donations to the charity can be given at any time throughout the year. All monies made from the hire of the venue go directly to support the watersports activities for young people. We are a recognised leader in our field for sports provision in London and unique in our ability to deliver this with an unparalleled social awareness of the disadvantaged young people in our communities. Our recent accreditation by Sport England/British Canoe Union to the status of a Clubmark accredited ‘Top Centre’ demonstrates our professionalism, dedication and commitment to the delivery of the highest quality of watersports training.
