Canal & River Trust

The Canal & River Trust is a charity responsible for managing and caring for the UK's network of canals and rivers. Its role includes maintaining waterways, restoring historic structures, and ensuring they are safe, accessible, and enjoyable for the public. The Trust also supports environmental conservation and promotes recreational activities like boating, walking, and cycling. Funded mainly through government grants, donations, and income from services, it works to preserve these waterways as valuable cultural and natural assets for future generations.
