At its next meeting, the All Party Parliamentary Group for the Waterways (APPGW) will be hearing from Heather Clarke (Canal & River Trust’s Director of Strategy) and Eoin Harris (Canal and River Trust’s Head of Environment) on how inland waterways are a key contributor to the Environment Improvement Plan.
They will also hear from Michael Limbrey (Chairman of the Montgomery Waterway Restoration Trust) about the Montgomery Canal as a practical example.
The All Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for the Waterways considers matters relating to navigable (and formerly navigable) rivers, canals, estuaries and lakes in the UK; including the potential social, economic and cultural impact of the regeneration of those waterways and extension of the system.
