Next weekend (13-14 June) we'll be at the National Waterways Museum's 50th Anniversary at Ellesmere Port talking to boaters. This is as part of our campaign against the CRT's surcharge on boats without home moorings.

[NBTA_sec @NBTA_sec]

We've already been speaking to hundreds of people over the last few weeks at CRT events and the public's response has been clear: they are outraged at the CRT's attempts to punish the most vulnerable members of our community, especially in the midst of a cost of living crisis.
