Who we are
Water-Based Activities For All
Islington Boat Club, founded nearly 50 years ago, offers a range of activities and courses for adults and young people. We are situated on the City Road Basin, entered via Graham Street, London N1 8JX.
An RYA approved training centre and staffed with Canoe England registered instructors, we offer many accredited courses for all ages over nine years.
We currently have an open access Youth Club on Saturdays (11am to 4pm) also on Tuesdays and Wednesdays (5pm to 7pm).
We can also offer narrowboat hire and event space hire for birthdays, receptions, private parties, corporate events and much more.
Our mission statement is:
To inspire learning, improve health, promote socialisation and strengthen the Islington community by providing a wide range of safe and affordable water-based activities for everyone – with a focus on young people, the over-50s and people with additional needs.
