Who are We?

The Vale of Llangollen Canal Boat Trust is a registered charity and was formed in 1983 to raise money to build a narrowboat to provide day trips for disabled and disadvantaged people of all ages. The Trust has a new boat Lady Winifred which was launched on the 30th June 2019. This is our day trip boat which runs trips from March to October each year. Lady Winifred and the Trust is run by a team of volunteers. Our patrons are David Essex, Aled Jones and Brian Kay.
