Richmond Canoe Club is based at Landsdowne Boathouse, 81–83 Petersham Road, Richmond, on the River Thames. Established in 1944, it is one of the UK's largest canoe clubs, with over 400 members, and is affiliated with British Canoeing.

The club offers access to the Thames for kayaking and canoeing, and welcomes newcomers through adult learner courses.

Members are encouraged to monitor river flow conditions using Environment Agency data before heading out, with the non-tidal gauge at Kingston Bridge serving as the key reference point for assessing conditions at Richmond.
