WITH Covid restrictions set to ease over the coming months, the Canal & River Trust is looking for volunteers to join its team.

It is looking for volunteer lock keepers at Apperley Bridge, Bingley and Gargrave on the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, Tinsley on the Sheffield and Tinsley Canal and West Stockwith on the Chesterfield Canal, adding that the roles are Covid-secure and full training will be provided.

Sean McGinley, Director for Yorkshire & North East Canal & River Trust, said: “You don’t necessarily need experience of boating or working on waterways, the most important things are enthusiasm, willingness to learn and a friendly manner."
