Good afternoon all Hunstrete and Newton Park will be reopening on Wednesday 22nd june. Anyone going to Hunstrete please be aware that the main road is closed for 10 days. Map attached.

I’m the race coordinator for Canoe Avon, based at the Saltford Rowing Centre.
I’d like to inform you that we will be running a canoeing race on Sunday 21st November (the day after Avon Rowing have their race). The race will be using the section of the Avon between the Saltford Rowing Centre and New Bridge. We will be racing between 10:30am and 3pm.
We would request that you ask your members to minimise fishing activity on that day, or at least stay alert to kayaks on the river and ensure lines are not causing a hazard.
Thank you for your cooperation.
Regards,
Steve Askew

| Hi Bathampton Angling Association
The Walk of Life is back! Join us on Saturday 18 September for the countryside-stepping canal walk with family and friends. Taking place along the Kennet & Avon Canal, there are two distances to choose from, the 26.2 mile marathon and 10 miles. Both victoriously cross the finish line in Bath. You’ll be guaranteed beautiful views, narrowboats and nature to boot! Sign up today for £15 and make every step matter for patients, families and staff at your local NHS hospital. Team entry available.
If you’d prefer to go at your own pace, you can take on your own 26.2 miles throughout the whole month of September as part of our virtual challenge. Perfect for all the family! What you’ll receive:
The last year has highlighted just how amazing our NHS is, but the RUH Bath still needs our help. RUH staff are there for us every day, no matter what and over the last year and half they have been working tirelessly every day to support patients, families, and each other throughout one of the most challenging times in the history. They have never stopped going the extra mile for us, and now it’s our turn. Every step you take will help make a difference to patient lives, when they need us most and continue to support our staff beyond the crisis. You’ll make it possible to fund lifesaving equipment and ground breaking research, as well as patient and staff wellbeing initiatives and the creation of calm and healing places that go beyond what standard NHS funding can provide.
Take the first step today, and sign up to the Walk of Life. Best wishes, The Forever Friends Appeal |

NOTICE TO BAA MEMBERS
BATHAMPTON AA WATERS – River Avon downstream from Claverton
>>>
>>> The Association wishes to point out that : –
>>> 1. The information in the 2020 membership card relating to fishing the river downstream from Claverton is incorrect and
>>> 2. The 2021 membership card omits any reference to such fishing and this also is incorrect.
>>> 3. The actual stretch of river available to members is accessed by using the rail underpass and heading downstream about 50 metres. The BAA stretch commences there and will be signposted at start and finish.
>>> 4. Travelling from Bath to Claverton, parking is available off the A36, just prior to the layby before Claverton and entry is via a number padlocked gate. From there the path leads to the Canal bridge and to the underpass.
>>>
>>> The Association apologises for any misrepresentation which members will appreciate was entirely unintentional.
By way of explanation the error arose due to confusion between the Association’s original agreement with British Rail in about 1980 and the new and different agreement with Network Rail which superseded it in approximately 2001.
