One of the things we often get to do on Spirit of Guiding is go through the deepest lock in England. This event is happening on Sunday to celebrate it's 30th anniversary

Spread the word! Celebrate 30 Years of Tuel Lane Lock on Sowerby Bridge Town Square, Sunday 24th of May 11:00 - 16:00. Enjoy live music, dancing and community stalls. Join in with the trash mob, talk with the volunteer Lock Keepers and learn more about the towns famous landmark.
Thirty years after it transformed the canal, Tuel Lane Lock continues to stand as a reminder of how determination, community spirit and shared effort can shape the future of Sowerby Bridge. We have even ordered some sunshine for you to enjoy this free event.

Two of our skippers, Aggie and Abigail took 1st Pellon Guides and Rangers on a weekend adventure to Hebden Bridge. From these photos you might not believe we had mixed weather... But we did have fun and managed the odd brew in the sun.

We still have availability for weekend, day, or evening trips.
