Kayaking with Julie

Kayaking with Julie

Julie is extremely active and into her fitness. As restrictions started to ease, she wanted to keep up her active lifestyle and try new things in the community. Kayaking is a great way to enjoy the outdoors. In addition to it being fun and enjoyable, it is a great way to workout.

With the support of Surrey Choices’ colleague, Julie began researching the best venue to go kayaking. This was to make sure it was safe, practical and had the right facilities for Julie. 

After finding the right venue, Julie enjoyed a lovely day full of laughs, smiles and giggles. From putting the wetsuit on the wrong way round to enjoying a nice workout on the water, the day came together perfectly. Julie is already excited about her next visit to the Horseshoe Lake.

After the session, Surrey Choices colleague Terrilea said: “Julie was extremely happy with her kayaking session today. She was very pleased with herself and what she has done is amazing. Julie is very excited for her next visit to the lake.”

Heading out into the community to go kayaking has had a positive impact on Julie. She is so proud of her achievements by getting out onto the water and kayaking. Trying new things is brave and this has had a great impact on her health and wellbeing!
