As lockdown is easing, the Centre is in the process of re-starting activities. We are doing this in phases so that we can ensure the safety and wellbeing of our users, staff and volunteers.
There will be some new procedures to get used to when visiting the site, including a one way system, hand sanitiser points, new cleaning protocols for equipment and social distancing. We will need everyone to act responsibly and follow these procedures so that we can keep the Centre safe for everyone.
We are so excited to be opening once more and look forward to welcoming you back to the Centre very soon.
Please take a look below for information on the Youth Club, Schools and Adult Clubs.
We are in the process of confirming plans for our Summer Project for young people aged 9-18. This will take place from Monday 27 July until Friday 21 August (Monday – Fridays). The final programme will be publicised on the website as soon as we can, so please be patient with us while we prepare for this, the largest programme of the year.
It will be fantastic to re-start activities with our youth members. During lockdown they have been taking part in online sessions, which has been a great way for them to have some continuity in their lives and keep in touch with friends. There has also been a great programme of quizzes and leadership challenges to keep them busy. On top of this, they made the amazing fundraising video that can be seen by following the link on the home page.
We are now taking bookings for the autumn term. There will be reduced ratios of students to instructors so that we can ensure the safety and wellbeing of students and staff, as well as some new procedures for activities. We are very aware that many students will not have had access to their usual physical activity over the last few months and we will be ready to get your students moving, learning and having fun together once again in the new school year. Please drop us an email to info@shadwell-basin.org.uk for further information.
Activities are starting initially from Monday 22nd June for our adult members, through Tower Hamlets Canoe Club and Shadwell Sailing Club. There will be limited numbers and new arrangements for sessions, but additional sessions are planned to enable as many people to get out on the water as is safely possible.
