Our Charity

The Cotswold Canals Trust is powered by hundreds of passionate volunteers and supported by a small, dedicated administration team based at Bell House, next to Wallbridge Lock in Stroud.

Our volunteers take on a wide range of essential roles, from rebuilding bridges and dredging the canal to providing boat trips and raising funds for restoration. Whether it’s coordinating projects, supporting our volunteers, or keeping members connected, our administration team works behind the scenes to keep the Trust running smoothly.

There’s always room for more help, whether you can spare a few hours or are able to commit to regular work. We never turn away an offer of assistance, and every contribution makes a meaningful impact on the canal’s restoration.
