A NEW trust set up to promote and protect the town’s newly restored canal network is about to launch its autumn fundraising season.
The Droitwich Waterways Trust - formerly Droitwich Canals Trust - will start the programme of events with a tea and scones fundraising event at St Richards House, Victoria Square, from 2 to 4pm on Saturday, September 3.
All proceeds will go to the training of volunteers to crew the Pamela May charity trip boat, which is based in Vines Park.
The Pamela May provides a recreational activity for the disabled and disadvantaged members of the community. Pamela May trips are also a popular feature of the town's St Richard’s Festival and next week’s annual Salt Day event.
