IWA canal and river campaigns > More Miles
More than 500 miles of the UK’s canals and river navigations have been restored to navigation since IWA was founded nearly 75 years ago; and another 700 miles is under active restoration thanks to the work of volunteers and hundreds of trusts and societies across the country.
Restored canals are a catalyst for regeneration in run-down urban areas and become the life-blood of those redeveloped areas.
As well as restoring waterways that used to exist, we support organisations who are promoting the building of new waterways.
