Venue Description

CanalAbility are an award winning charity dedicated to providing the facilities for disabled people and people with special needs to enjoy boating on the river on specially adapted canal boats. The three purpose-built, fully centrally heated and accessible broad beam boats enable everyone to take a full and active part in the boating experience all year round. The boats have wet rooms, disability toilets, ramps & lifts to enable access via wheelchair and for people with impaired mobility, hoist points, and fully equipped galleys to prepare your own meals. Have a day out or a short break and enjoy exploring the Rivers Stort and Lee, through the beautiful Essex and Hertfordshire countryside. Have a go at steering and changing the locks, or just relax, watch the wildlife and the world go by. For longer holidays you can travel to London and the Grand Union Canal. Cruise through Regents Park and its zoo or perhaps take in a show – the accommodation is free and there’s no congestion charge.
