From the Vicar Revd Anne Donaldson Couples at our Marriage Preparation day and folk on the current Alpha course have made similar comments: how nice to have time to sit and really talk to each other. How true, but what a comment on our life nowadays!! Surely relationships of one sort and another are what makes life really hum, aren’t they? So why do we do so little about them? Like anything else that matters in life, they are worth investing in – and that means investing time. Precious time. Pressured time. Time is the hardest thing to give nowadays it seems, and yet the most valuable – far more valuable than money or things. I think of the little boy who said that he really wouldn’t mind not going abroad for a holiday, or not having a Wii, what he really wanted was time with his parents. A teenager said that he’d had a great weekend, even though he was doing something he didn’t particularly like, because it was ‘quality time with Dad’. Lent is a time in which we are encouraged to assess our lives: are they what we want them to be? For a Christian: are they what God would want them to be? (Christians have given our lives to God, so our lives belong to Him and we are simply stewards of them) So maybe it would be good to take some time this month to think (and pray) through what your priorities are in life. And then look at how you spend your time: does that reflect your priorities? For example, if you say that your husband / wife / partner / children are top priority, how does that work itself out through your diary? And when you are together are you really ‘with’ them or are you busy doing / thinking something else although in their presence? There’s nothing quite like giving someone your full attention, and it sounds like it’s a rare commodity today Christians would take that one step further and ask exactly the same questions of our relationship with God: how often do I give God my full attention, rather than gabble a quick prayer and rush off somewhere? How often do I concentrate on God enough to allow Him to get through to me? and yet I say that I give my life to Him and He is my Lord and Master – how does that actually work out in my life? I hope you can find the time for such thoughts, and find them helpful in your life, whatever the outcome.

From next season President would have a spectacular year for President, with its ‘first lady,’ and together they would make a fine pair – giving the successful reenactment of a fly run the crew the challenge and fun of working a pair of boats from London to the first Braunston under steam.

  • Looking Forward to the Next Ten Years

    Looking Forward to the Next Ten Years

    Looking forward to the next ten years London Waterway Partnership Ten Year Strategic Plan 2014 1 Welcome I am delighted to present the London Waterway Partnership’s Strategic Plan. Preparation of the plan has taken a good deal of the Partnership’s early effort, but we have been much helped by the reception and comments arising from our draft document and the two consultation meetings held in December 2013. We are also grateful for the written comments received from the Heritage Lottery Fund; the Hillingdon Canal Partnership; London Boaters and Mark Walton, the River Lee Tidal Mill Trust and Westminster City Council. The document has been strengthened by the valuable points made by our respondents, particularly in emphasising the way in which London waterways can enrich regeneration opportunities and support education, training and volunteering. Our strategy is not set in stone. It is designed to develop over time with the continuing input from those supporting our waterways. We will report progress at our Annual Meeting. Our aspirations are ambitious and how quickly the objectives are met, will depend on the resources available in terms of money and support from within the Canal & River Trust and externally. What is not in question is our conviction that the regional and local elements of the Trust’s overall strategy should be emphasised. We set up the Partnership Board of 12 members in July 2013 and deliberately chose to make the board as diverse as possible in order to reflect the very wide range of interests in canals and waterways. I have been impressed by the Board’s commitment and enthusiasm, characteristics which have been reflected in the many people we have met in getting to know the key elements of London’s very diverse waterways.

  • London Waterway River Lee & Stort Fisheries and Angling Action Plan

    River Lee & Stort Fisheries & Angling Action Plan London Waterway River Lee & Stort Fisheries and Angling Action Plan 2015 Authors National Fisheries & Angling Team London Waterway Team Local Fisheries & Angling Stakeholders 1 River Lee & Stort Fisheries & Angling Action Plan 2 River Lee & Stort Fisheries & Angling Action Plan Introduction In September 2013 the Trust launched a new angling strategy, ‘Be Inspired; Go Fishing’, which set out how the Trust intends to work more closely with angling clubs to change perceptions of angling, encourage more people to try the sport, encourage communities to play a leading role in keeping the tradition alive on their local waterways as well as maintaining and improving the local water and bankside habitat. The strategy also outlines how the Trust wants to work with communities to improve facilities, access for anglers, and in particular to grow the numbers of people involved in the sport by attracting more young people as well as improving the environment in which fish live. Fish are at the heart of angling and the aquatic environment. Good fishing relies on having healthy fish populations. Fish are a key indicator of water quality in a piece of legislation called the Water Framework Directive. We will work to achieve the targets set out in the directive to achieve good ecological potential (and status) for our waterways. Context Many angling clubs feel marginalised in their relationship with the Trust and want to feel more valued as a customer. This action plan will serve to identify the priority issues that need to be addressed locally to strengthen relationships with existing clubs, to attract new clubs and lapsed and new angling customers.

    Saturday Walkers Club www.walkingclub.org.uk Cheshunt to Broxbourne walk River Lee Country Park and Waltham Abbey Length Main Walk: 17½ km (10.9 miles). Three hours 55 minutes walking time. For the whole excursion including trains, sights and meals, allow at least 7½ hours. Short Circular Walk, from Cheshunt: 12 km (7.5 miles). Two hours 35 minutes walking time. Long Circular Walk, from Broxbourne: 20 km (12.4 miles). Four hours 30 minutes walking time. OS Map Explorer 174. Cheshunt, map reference TL365022, is in Hertfordshire, 7 km NE of Enfield. Waltham Abbey is in Essex. Toughness 2 out of 10 (1 for the Short Circular Walk). Features The Lea Valley is a wide floodplain which has long been both an important transport corridor and a natural boundary (eg. between the Saxons and the Danes in the Dark Ages). Its rivers provided water and power for many mills and factories, although nowadays the journey out of London seems to offer an unbroken line of light industrial estates, warehouses and retail parks. This does not exactly lift the spirits when seen from the train, but on the Herts/Essex border just before Cheshunt the view abruptly changes to the tree-lined lakes of River Lee Country Park. There are good opportunities for bird-watching in this wetland landscape of rivers and filled-in gravel pits, and several locations where orchids can be seen in late May and June. A series of sculptures are dotted around the park and the walk route goes past many of them. https://www.walkingclub.org.uk/walk/cheshunt-to-broxbourne/ 1/12 The lunchtime stop is in the historic market town of Waltham Abbey.

  • Draft London Mooring Strategy

    Draft London Mooring Strategy

    DRAFT LONDON MOORING STRATEGY October 2017 Why a London Mooring Strategy is needed London’s waterway network has grown in popularity over the last decade, with hundreds of thousands of people visiting the waterways every year and a significant growth in demand for boating and mooring. This draft London Mooring Strategy sets out our plans for improving the experience for boaters, and of boating, in the London region and making the waterways a place that can be shared fairly and enjoyed by everyone. Growth in boat numbers The density of boats moored on our London waterways is higher than anywhere else on the Trust’s 2000-mile inland waterway network, and boating in London has become more challenging as boat numbers continue to grow. Between 2010 and 2017 the number of boats sighted on the Trust’s London waterways has grown from 2101 to 40011. This has led to pressure on moorings, facilities and infrastructure. It can be hard to find space at towpath moorings in the most popular areas while the supply of long-term moorings isn’t enough to meet demand. The growth in boat numbers has also brought opportunities with increased activity making towpaths in previously quiet and isolated locations feel safer and leading to a rise in use. Increased boat numbers have also helped support towpath businesses and create more diverse waterway communities. Projected growth If the growth in boat numbers in London continues at the same pace as recent years, by 2022 there could be a projected growth2 in boat numbers in London of between 35-52% (an increase of between 1420 – 1695 boats on current numbers).
