Canals at home: Our best bits

Are you in need of recharging?

Our canals and rivers offer spaces on your doorstep to relax and reconnect when we need them the most.

Support your local canals

Sit back, relax and enjoy a trip to the canal without opening your front door.

We are building a vast library of canal-related films, images, interactive content and stories for you to enjoy from the comfort of your own home. We’re making life better by water, online.
