As a charity we need to find new and innovative ways to raise the necessary funds to continue with our restoration work. And Blockaid is just that!
Now that our restoration team are busy rebuilding the canal from Little Tring through to Buckland – a length of about 2 miles, we needto help them out a little.
To give you an idea of the work involved, our volunteers first clear out scrub and undergrowth then dig out the proper profile of the canal before lining the sloping sides with the concrete blocks. The canal bed then gets lined with a special clay material which keeps the canal watertight.
Each block has to be brought to the canal and put in place, before being filled with concrete to stabilise it.
Each block costs us £2 to buy and fix in place. Your generous sponsorship will help us continue with the work, all done by our volunteers to professional standards. Why not pay a visit to the Blockaid website for more information and to get involved.
