The Tame Valley Canal is so peaceful, cutting through the urban landscape from Birmingham across to Sandwell and Walsall.  I've run hundreds of miles up and down its towpaths, enjoying the feeling of being in the countryside while only really being across a line of trees and an embankment from housing or industrial estates, the illusion is powerful.  So it's only fair that I join this campaign to help raise a few quid to protect and enhance spaces like this.
