🌈🐝 BEE UNIQUE in colloboration with ULLSWATER OUTDOOR ADVENTURES were delighted to bring to you a PADDLEBOARDING Experience at DERWENTWATER 🌈🐝
❤️An hour and a half session, where participants were trained by Ullswater Outdoor Adventures to have a go at paddleboarding. No previous experience necessary.
💜This was an exclusive session for parents/ carers, adults with or without an official diagnosis. “Have some you time, connect with nature and learn a new skill whilst admiring the scenic views”
💙”Stand Up Paddleboarding (known as SUP) is a great way to explore Derwent Water and take in your spectacular surroundings. You will be in the hands of a super friendly, qualified instructor who will teach you all you need to know to get moving and stay safe. We can guarantee that you will have a good time and come away with a smile on your face, and it is highly likely that you will get wet at some point while you learn to stand up and maybe do a few tricks. The beauty of paddleboarding is that you can kneel, sit or stand and still enjoy this activity. You will be provided with a wetsuit and buoyancy aid and we have changing tents for you to use.”💙
👨⚖️The Town Mayor started the day by introducing the May Day, King and Queen before St Herbert’s Church of England Primary and Nursery School danced away to the fabulous Mazurka folk band.

There was a mixture of lovely food vans & refreshments, suitable for everyone.💕

BEE UNIQUE held its first presentation evening at The Falcon Club, Egremont last night to celebrate all our amazing BEE UNIQUE FC players with presenting trophies and medals.
The evening hosted by BEE UNIQUE Co-Founder & FC Coach Martin McCarron came up with a lovely slide slow presentation of BEE UNIQUE FC achievements. Each player received a trophy / medal and sweets with a little speech. A fun filled evening with games, raffles, quiz and food provided by The Falcon Club.
BEE UNIQUE would like to extend our appreciation and say a massive thank you to Parents and Carers for coming along, purchasing raffle tickets and taking part. All at BEE UNIQUE are super proud of each and everyone of our BEE UNIQUE FC players. It’s a lovely group with formed friendships and sessions are run by coaches tailored to suit all abilities.
BEE UNIQUE Martin said “An incredible turn out last night, it’s humbling to receive all the support and I honestly can’t thank you all enough, couldn’t be more prouder of all the children who have grown so much. Thank you to BEE UNIQUE REP Tina for supporting the evening and to BEE UNIQUE Co-Founder Nadia for sorting the raffle prizes. A big shout out to our coach & Co-Founder Dave Parsons and Coach Simon Walsh, it was an honour to present the trophies and medals to both coaches and children. We have done so much since the launch of our award winning club with children having the experience to train in a non-rigid environment, being flag barers and mascots to taking part in tours and playing tournaments. All the training sessions are funded so that children can access and learn new skills free. Lots to look forward to this year!”
Thank you to all our sponsors who have supported us with our BEE UNIQUE FC Journey and made it be possible to be where we are today.
Thank you to the Whitehaven Rugby Club and Workington Reds for donating raffle prizes and to parents for bringing along additional prizes on the evening.
Thank you to the Falcon Club for the private hire and accommodating food.
SEN Parent, Barry Ferguson “Brilliant night last night, thank you for everything BEE UNIQUE do. I dread to think where we and other families would be without you guys. The boys love being part of a group where they can be themselves”
SEN Parent Georgina said “It’s been a great night tonight, something I wasn’t sure we would experience, but Dexter attended his first football presentation night with BEE UNIQUE. Lots of fun and nice to see the friendships made, also Simon got something for being coach too”
A massive shout out to Harry Pennington for fundraising in aid of BEE UNIQUE FC over the past 12 months raising a staggering £1,000! and to Leo Bartlett for presenting us with a lovely gift – coach plaque with key rings, we were really touched and humbled.
You are all SUPERSTARS and we are immensely proud of you all!

A huge shout out to all the Manchester United staff for making us all feel so welcome and going above and beyond for BEE UNIQUE FC.
BEE UNIQUE Co-Founder Martin says “An absolutely fantastic day was had at this unique opportunity for our players. I organised the return coach and everything went smoothly on the day with timings of the experience. Thank you to parent Sam for making children cookies. BEE UNIQUE FC Players and their parents had such an amazing full day experience and hopefully this could be the first of many. Well done to all our BEE UNIQUE FC players, you are all incredible and we couldn’t be anymore prouder of you all!! SUPER PROUD OF YOU ALL.
