How you can help the BCS

Join the Society by clicking here

Or contact us via info@buckinghamcanal.org.uk.

Let the Society know what skills you have that might be of use:

    • from cataloguing archives to driving a JCB,
    • from drawing maps to analysing soil samples
    • from filling envelopes to running the stall.

There is always a need for people with time and energy to devote to:

    • thinking up and implementing fund-raising schemes;
    • organising events;
    • maintaining the archives;
    • updating the canal survey;
    • developing the stall, the slide-show and other presentational resources;
    • organising the annual BCS boat rally and waterside event at Cosgrove;
    • helping with clearance work (members only, for insurance reasons!).
