I'm raising £5,000 Urgent Appeal: Save Tameside Canal Boat Trust!

For 42 years, Tameside Canal Boat Trust - formally Tameside Canal Boat Trust for the handicapped - has been a lifeline for our community, offering specialised boat trips on our adapted narrowboat, StillWaters. We provide vital support to individuals with disabilities, mental health challenges, veterans, and those facing social isolation. Our educational boat trips for schools bring waterway history to life.

However, escalating operational costs, including mandatory waterway licences, mooring fees, and survey fees, threaten our existence. This means that countless individuals will be denied the therapeutic benefits of our boat trips, and a crucial piece of local heritage will be lost.

Your generous donation will help us keep Tameside's heritage afloat and ensure that our vital services continue to reach those who need them most.

Please donate today and help us keep our community connected.
