Designate the canal network as a National Park
The government recently announced the search for a new National Park. We believe our canal network offers a green space throughout the country that should be preserved as a National Park for future generations.
We believe that the Canal and Rivers Trust is already struggling with maintaining the infrastructure. Designating the canal network as a National Park could help maintain the system for enjoyment of future generations by providing funding which could preserve green spaces in cities along our canals, maintain wild spaces in the country, and provide adequate access to everyone to enjoy the canals.
If you want to sign this petition (as opposed to merely discuss it), you need to do that on the government's e-Petitions website.
