Like many waterway-based charities, the Bridge 19-40 Union Canal Society, is unable to offer public boat trips and other canal-based activities during the current Coronavirus pandemic. We’re hoping to generate donations to help us replace the income that we would have generated in our main operating season, from April – October. Our charity provides opportunities for communities and local people who enjoy the many aspects of our canal network. Canals – and our boat trips - support the health and well-being of the many people who visit them, as well as providing valuable tourist and community facilities. We help to maintain the section of the Union Canal between Bridges 19 and 40, taking in the towns and villages of Broxburn, Winchburgh and Philpstoun. The wealth of history and many points of interest along this stretch are highlighted here: https://sway.office.com/P67Wx3T38wg0Fcve?ref=email
