Wash Walls

🌱 Help protect our Erewash Canal — one walk at a time 💙

Did you know the stone and brick structures protecting our canal banks are called wash walls?

Canal & River Trust are asking volunteers to help keep them clear of damaging vegetation.

It’s simple — take gloves, take secateurs, and while you’re enjoying a walk, help care for the canal in your own time.
