Readying & replenishing Thames Venturer

It will ensure that the boat is ready for school groups after half term. Without the tank being topped up there's a risk we may not be able to deliver the education days.

Who this task will support
The River Thames Boat Project
RTBP uses 2 wheelchair-accessible boats to improve access to the Thames. 1 boat (Thames Discoverer) is used for therapeutic cruises whilst our 2nd boat (Thames Venturer) is used as a floating classroom for primary school children to learn about the river and the natural environment.

During half term, Thames Venturer will require a deep clean internally and externally. The freshwater tank will also need topping up which will be done with a relay of camping barrels that are filled on Teddington Lock island.

There's space to change and leave bags and toilets. We're not planning to do anything purposefully dangerous, but GoodGym takes no responsibility for your safety during group runs, you participate at your own risk. Participants accept full responsibility for items stored at Whole Foods Richmond, and Whole Foods Richmond and GoodGym will not be held liable for any losses or damages.
