The Aquatic Safety and Incident Management Technical Group (ASIM) is a new group which will support and provide advice in relation to First Aid, incident management and aquatic safety, specific to paddlesport activity. This will include developing specific guidance and support, reviewing and developing the Swimmer Safety and Rescue course, as well as keeping up to date with regulatory, industry, and technical developments within the remit of first aid.

BCAB is currently recruiting for a Technical Group. This provides a great opportunity for anyone with a range of knowledge of first aid, incident management and aquatic safety to support and provide advice specifically on the development of qualifications and awards and safety matters.

The commitment will be to attend approximately 4 – 6 online meetings per year.

The #ShePaddles programme will be an empowering and transformative experience for female paddlers designed to enhance leadership skills, resilience, and ability to perform under pressure. Through a series of in-person and online sessions with leading performance consultants Jo Hopkins and Eliza Downey, you'll explore your leadership style, understand the impact of pressure on performance, and learn from various fields such as sport, the military, and the arts to drive individual and team performance. Additionally, hands-on paddling sessions led by Effie Ellis-O'Neill, an experienced Coach and Tutor of BCAB Qualifications, will help you develop and refine your skills on the water and guide you in your goal setting whilst building a community of female paddlers.
