A ban on paddle boarding on many reservoirs across the north west has sparked discontent among enthusiasts who have been told it was never allowed in the first place.
Last week United Utilities (UU) was criticised after it released statements confirming paddle boarding wasn't allowed at 165 of its reservoirs because of safety fears, denying a claim from British Canoeing it was a new 'ban'.
Four paddle boarders died in River Cleddau in Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire south Wales in November.
