About Lichfield and Hatherton Canals Restoration Trust
The Lichfield and Hatherton Canals Restoration Trust is a dedicated charity focused on the restoration of the historic Lichfield and Hatherton canals in the UK. Established with the vision of reviving these waterways, the Trust aims to enhance the local environment, promote biodiversity, and provide recreational opportunities for the community.
Our core activities include:
- Canal Restoration: We work tirelessly to restore the canals to their former glory, ensuring they are navigable and accessible for future generations.
- Community Engagement: The Trust actively involves local communities in our projects, fostering a sense of ownership and pride in the canals.
- Environmental Conservation: We prioritise the protection of local wildlife and habitats during our restoration efforts, promoting sustainable practices.
- Education and Awareness: Through workshops, events, and outreach programs, we educate the public about the historical significance of the canals and the importance of preserving them.
Our vision extends beyond just restoration; we aim to create vibrant green corridors that connect communities and encourage outdoor activities such as walking, cycling, and boating. By collaborating with local authorities, businesses, and volunteers, we strive to secure funding and support for our initiatives.
Join us in our mission to breathe new life into the Lichfield and Hatherton canals, ensuring they remain a cherished part of our heritage for years to come.
