Excellent, good to have you adults engaging with a brilliant project 😊😎👍

That's fantastic! Way to go kids on your hard work, helping restore the canal will reap benefits your whole life. Cheers to all!

Top job again Paul. Great video. Really interesting to see how much progress has been made in a relatively short space of time. Well done to all involved. 👍🏼

I visited recently and have made it back since, seeing the volunteers hard at work and these videos is so encouraging, especially seeing the students adding their footprint on their way to great success here and in their future endeavours. Great Work.

Inspirational. Keenly watching from New Zealand determined to see the restoration ASAP.

Great work on the saplings. I foresee some hedge weaving days. A woven hedge when mature will stop most cars.

You guys seem to have the youngest volunteer force I’ve seen, it’s the way all canal trusts need to work as I know many are really struggling. Get the kids hooked on the canal and it’s benefits and hopefully they will continue to help away from these schemes. Also look at the progress on some of these sections!

@CourtAboveTheCut thanks Steve!

The video also shows, but perhaps doesn't emphasise strongly enough, that none of this would be possible without the tireless efforts of the not-so-young people who made it all happen.

No new updates about the actual work? Just this PR?

[@LHCRT]

@@btudrus we have lots of photo updates on Facebook and our other social media, but no videos ready yet. There will be more to come, in time.

[@paulmarshall-2024]

There is a new progress report video in the pipeline. Meanwhile, we are desperate for more volunteers hence this ‘PR’.
