The charity making life better by water
Making life better by water
Eliza from our Explorers team uses a children's sand tray to explain how canals were built and bring history to life.
Watch the video for a fascinating insight to the challenges of everyday life 200 years ago, and the solutions provided by pioneering canal engineers.
It's a fun watch for all ages. If you have children, and a sand tray, you can have a go at the activities yourself afterwards.
Our newsletter is packed full of exciting updates and stories of how our charity keeps canals alive.
