What changes when you see London from the water?

In this episode of Talk of the Thames, Chloe Russell speaks with author and paddleboarder Anu Aladin (@mysupstories) about her new book Paddle London - a guide to 40 paddle routes across London’s rivers, canals, docks and reservoirs.

After more than a decade of paddling in the capital, Anu describes the Thames as a place of local adventure, hidden nature and moving meditation. From early morning paddles under Hammersmith Bridge to fish surveys at Syon Park’s tidal meadow, this conversation explores what stand-up paddleboarding reveals about London’s waterways - and why the Thames deserves to be better protected, celebrated and understood.

Together, Chloe and Anu discuss Blue Mind, river wildlife, access to the water, responsible paddling, tides, soundscapes, safety, sewage, community, and the joy of discovering wilderness closer than you think.
