London and South East

You'll find all sorts of information about our waterways in London and South East here, whether you're a live aboard boater or a towpath commuter.

Discover great days out and brilliant ways to walk, run, cycle, boat, paddle, fish or even volunteer your way to a happier, healthier life.

Our community projects are revitalising your local waterways and creating wellbeing spaces for the future. Along these well-travelled canals from Oxford, Slough and all the way to the iconic London Docklands, you can get involved and help us make life better by water.
