This is a weekend event on the Birmingham Canal Navigations. The work usually involves hooking items that are in the water out, litter picking and also possible off side vegetation work.
This is a centrally booked weekend event, so book in here: Birmingham Canals Clean-up 2025 – The Inland Waterways Association
The minibus will be available as usual for a lift to the weekend from London Waterloo at 6.30pm. If you get a van lift we ask for a contribution of up to £15 for fuel. Please let us know you would like a lift at [email protected].

Accommodation
We will be staying in the Malthouse Activity Centre, Tipton as a mixed group so you will need to bring: a mat or camp bed, a sleeping bag, sturdy clothes that can get muddy or torn, and the BCN mud is especially bad!
You can also join for the day if you prefer not to stay overnight. Come to the signing in point after 9am.
There is moorings available for bringing your floating accommodation. Please let Chris Morgan know if you wish to do this.
