Bob and Sue Williams of the Lichfield & Hatherton Canals Restoration Trust joined Chris to present a personal case in Brussels - by British narrowboat! Accompanied by Humph and Wendy Farnsworth on Dutch barge "Avocette", travel with them through rural canals, major shipping channels and unique world-class structures in Northern France and Belgium as they reach for the stars of the European Community to seek funding for the Birmingham Canal Navigations related restoration project.

Visit the historic City of Ghent and marvel at their commitment to waterway development. Explore the disused Espierre and Roubaix Canals which offer twinning opportunities, as the Boat Lift at Les Fontinettes has done with Anderton. A working holiday with a real difference.
