KayakSafe NZ is a programme run by KASK. The primary focus of KayakSafe NZ is to deliver content to recreational kayakers of all types in workshops throughout the country aimed at providing the approriate information to keep people safe on the water.
The workshops are led by trained volunteer experts and consist of an interactive presentation followed by outdoor discussions of equipment and on the water training to reinforce key safety messages.
The programme has developed over the years since it’s initial incarnation as “Meet the People” programme run in 2019/20.
