Restoration training & workshops

Together with the Inland Waterways Association, we run a series of workshops and training events throughout the year, including our annual restoration conference.

Annual Restoration Conference

The 2025 annual restoration conference in partnership with The Inland Waterways Association took place on Saturday 26 April 2025 at the historic National Waterways Museum at Ellesmere Port.

The event is a brilliant opportunity for volunteers to network and to strengthen collaborative restoration efforts. The main theme this year was sustaining our future and focused on the challenges of delivering sustainable restorations from different viewpoints.

We're already looking forward to doing it all again next year and details on the 2026 event will be announced later in the year.

We will soon be starting a schedule of new training workshops and webinars throughout the next 12 months. We are currently discussing topics and speakers, and will be adding to this programme regularly.
