I presume you need some kind of license to do like the Thames and stuff?
I don't think there is a specific qualification but you need to be 'experienced'. There are recommended courses. https://server1.boatingonthethames.co.uk/Paddling has loads of info.
Can you canoe on canal paths?
No, they are too dry. You can in the canal with a small craft licence. https://canalrivertrust.org.uk/things-to-do/canoeing-and-kayaking-near-me

hippy
For real? I'm only partly serious - I don't have space for one - but I do definitely want to do some kayaking or similar at some point. Maybe take some kayak lessons or something first or just get a big open canoe and I presume you need some kind of license to do like the Thames and stuff? Can you canoe on canal paths? I've only ever used boats in Oz so I have no idea about the rules.
