It’s so much easier to move around the area now, I can’t believe I used to be stuck in the car all the time. Because more people use the canal, it’s easier to play on it and more people are working in the small businesses that have sprung up along the route. Because we have learnt more about what’s going on in the corridor, it’s much easier to get involved.”
