The Wendover Canal Trust volunteers attend regular restoration working parties managed by our Site Manager Mikk Bradley. We are restoring the Wendover Canal to full navigation, which in turn achieves so much more. Our restoration has achieved considerable Biodiversity Net Gain and continues to do so. Our work also opens access to the canal for people to improve their well-being and enjoy the heritage features.
Next Restoration Working Parties
Restoration working parties are held throughout the year, usually starting on the first Friday of the month, listed below.
Our next Work Party will be announced at a future date.
We need further help for this highly rewarding work; for further information, please contact us at volunteer@wendovercanal.org.uk .
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
