Trustees' Report and Accounts - Canal & River Trust

• encourage as many people as possible
from a wide range of backgrounds and
interests to enjoy the waterways
• safeguard our precious heritage and
environment for future generations
The Trust is committed to making the
beauty of the waterways’ natural and
historic environment relevant and
accessible to millions of people. To
achieve this we need to be very well
connected to local communities. Our
new Waterways Partnerships and local
teams are creating plans that reflect the
distinct needs and ambitions of each
waterway to ensure that communities
play a big part in using and protecting
their canals and rivers.
Inside and around the Trust, there is a
real sense of energy and a new sense of
working together. We have ambitious plans
for the future. We need to make more
people aware of our work and we need to
get more people involved in what we do.
Our waterways belong to us all. We want
to build on the successes of our first few
months and with your help secure the
future of our canals and rivers for the
next 200 years.
