Camden Canals & Narrowboat Association

Who we are

CCNA gives disadvantaged community groups an experience of a different aspect of London by taking a canal trip on a traditional narrowboat.  We train people to crew a historic narrowboat to NCBA standards.

The Objects of Camden Canals and Narrowboat Association are:

1. To assist in the relief of distress and hardship suffered by young people, the elderly, the
vulnerable, and other people with special needs in the London Borough of Camden (and
adjoining areas).

2. To advance the education of young people and others in regard to canals in Camden and
adjoining areas, their history, their uses and their environment.

3. Provide one or more narrowboats for the benefit of people living or working in the London
Borough of Camden (and adjoining areas)

Further, we have a special responsibility for preserving and maintaining the historic
narrowboat, 'TARPORLEY'.
