What We Do

For over 40 years we have been serving the community, providing accessible canal boat holidays and day trips for all ages and health conditions.
Symphony

Symphony is one of our broad-beamed boats which we use for our day trips.
Our Team

Volunteers are instrumental in supporting the work of the Peter Le Marchant Trust. We also have a team of core office staff who are dedicated to providing the best experience possible for our visitors.
Volunteer

People volunteer for so many different reasons and each reason is unique to the individual. For some it is the sense of offering back to their community, others volunteer to boost their CV, whilst for many it is about the companionship and friendship.
Boat Holidays

Our holiday boats operate from March through to October. All our boats are designed to take passengers with a wide variety of mobility difficulties and health conditions.
