Supported Housing Residents Go White Water Rafting

In August 2023, I along with 2 other staff members, took 3 residents from Coedlys and 2 residents from Llys Y Gwynt to Llangollen to experience white water rafting for the day. Once we arrived there, we were given a wet suit each and a life jacket. After we were kitted out with all our safety gear we were transported to the picturesque horseshoe falls. We carried the raft together with the instructor down to the water and went through some safety instructions along with some dos and don’ts. The instructor started showing us the actions he would be using whilst out on the water, we had 10-15 minutes to practice inside and outside the raft. Once everyone got the hang of it. We spent roughly 2 hours in and out of the water.
