We are a constituted volunteer group formed in 2013 by two individuals who had a shared appreciation for their local stretch of the Regents Canal and its importance in the community. Our mission is to invite others to help us improve the health and appearance of this waterway and its surrounding green spaces for everyone to enjoy. To that end, we have run monthly clean up events along the canal for the past 3½ years. We are committed to continuing our regular clean ups but have also expanded the scope of our work: our ‘Greening the Regents’ project has involved launching a series of greening and other improvement schemes on the lower Regents. We have successfully received grant funding for these schemes, which include the installation of floating planters along the canal (totalling a length of approx. 110 metres) and the creation of two meadows to increase the biodiversity of the landscape (totalling approx. 300sq metres). We have delivered these projects solely by leading volunteer events that are free and open to the public. In fact we could never have achieved our accomplishments to date if not for the caring, committed and hard-working people from around the community who have come out to help.
