Waterways Ireland - Me Too - Low Income Families - FREE Fun Day

About the Event

Waterways Ireland are working with Share to offer a free watersposrts fun day for people with disabilities to help promote the range of opportunities available.

The Waterways Ireland - ‘Me Too’ Fun Day’s are a series of three fun days set up to attract minority ethnic communities, people with disabilities and low income families to participate in a series of adventure activities at Share Holiday Village – Lisnaskea.

The three fun days will actively target these user groups and individuals to participate in a range of water based activities that will attract people of all ages and abilities to Lough Erne and encourage them to take up a new hobby or sport. The event will be run over two weekends (three days) at the start of the summer to give participants the opportunity to progress in their chosen sport throughout the better weather.

The Dates are

09 May – Me Too - Disability,

11 May – Me Too - Ethnic Minorities,

13 May– Me Too – Low Income Families

The event will be run from 10am to 4pm each day with a range of 1.5 hr taster sessions in Canoeing, Kayaking, Windsurfing, Sailing, Banana Boat Rides, Jet boat rides, Raft Building and Cruises of Upper Lough Erne. Dry activities will be made available on the cruise for families with very young children including balloon modelling, story telling and face painting.

Share has also recently received a range of specialist equipment through a SPORT NI – Awards for Sport funding application to ensure access for all. The equipment includes a hoist, three specialist sea kayaks, paddles, spray decks and buoyancy aids and two tandem windsurfing boards with ‘I Do’ systems which enable sails to stay upright and allows closer coaching by instructors.
