The local paddler, who came fourth representing Team GB at Tokyo in 2020, will open Westfield Park in Stone.
He is a member of the park-based Stafford and Stone Canoe Club, which will finish its ‘Paddle to Paris’ at the event.
This involves paddling 619km, which is the distance from the club to the canoe slalom venue in Paris.
The public will be able to help them reach their goal with canoe slalom rowing machines available.
