Liverpool Watersports - Local Solutions

Liverpool Watersports Centre

Liverpool Water sports Centre - is part of Local Solutions, a charity working with disadvantaged groups around the Liverpool City Region and North Wales.  At the heart of the centre, is a commitment to make water sports accessible to everyone and this is reflected in the mix of customers at the centre including visitors to the city, local people enjoying the activities on offer and visits by schools and groups working with disadvantaged groups.

 Our History - The centre started on the banks of the Leeds Liverpool Canal in 1979 when Local Solutions procured some canoes and an old narrow boat and started to offer trips along the canal to young people from disadvantaged areas of the city.  In 1994, the centre moved to a purpose built building and current home in Queens Dock so that a wider range of activities could be offered to the whole community. 

LWC is also a key part of the offer to visitors to the city and won the award for ‘Small Visitor Attraction of the Year’ at the LCR Tourism Awards. The centre plays an active role in the events at the docks, including the Pirate Festival and the River Festival.  City Explorer Liverpool rank us as one of their Top 41 Things to Do in Liverpool
