The support of patrons and partners is invaluable and we are always happy to work together with organisations, businesses and individuals whose aims are similar to our own.
Patrons

We are honoured that Timothy West & Prunella Scales are now patrons of the partnership, their well known acting careers need no introduction and they are also long-time narrowboaters and their second series of Great Canal Journeys has recently been shown on Channel 4.

We are pleased that The Rt Hon Sir Tony Baldry has agreed to be a patron of the partnership. Tony was, until his retirement, MP for North Oxfordshire, co-chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for the Waterways and a member of Her Majesty’s Privy Council.
