TV personality and vlogger Robbie Cumming has become a patron of the Wendover Canal Trust (WCT) as the charity celebrates its 25th anniversary since work began on the canal’s restoration.
Robbie, who presents BBC Four’s ‘Canal Boat Diaries’ which records his experiences whilst cruising the canals on his boat ‘Naughty Lass’, joins current patron, actor Sir David Suchet CBE of ‘Poirot’ fame.
Said Robbie: ‘I’m delighted to become a patron of the Trust in its anniversary year. I can’t think of a better cause for a boater than supporting volunteers to restore a stretch of canal to make it navigable again. The effort that has gone into this to date, is extraordinary.”
