The Way the Fund Works

The Fund is run and administered by a Board of Trustees. The Trustees oversee all applications to the Fund for assistance. Applications are evaluated in relation to the principles and goals of the Fund.

Where the Fund’s Money Comes Includes:

  • Donations
  • Proceeds from Guidebook sales

Relationship to Paddle Scotland

The Fund’s close relationship to Paddle Scotland (formerly the Scottish Canoe Association or SCA), which is the national governing body for the sport in Scotland, operates in three ways:

  • Paddle Scotland may nominate some of the Fund’s Trustees
  • Paddle Scotland has published and sells a number of Guidebooks, royalties of which go to the Fund
  • Paddle Scotland has an Access Committee which should be the main point of contact for any access issues relating to canoeing in Scotland. The Access Committee may apply to the Fund for financial help when addressing these issues.
