Derby and Sandiacre Canal Trust

The Derby and Sandiacre Canal Trust aims to restore the former Derby Canal as a navigable waterway from Sandiacre to Swarkestone via Derby as close as possible to the original route

We like the can-do and friendly, welcoming attitude of Derby’s people

We fully support Marketing Derby’s aim for the improvement of Derby and the regeneration of a community that is attractive and fulfilling to existing and potential residents and businesses in Derby and its environs. The completion of the canal restoration would make a significant and lasting contribution to this objective.

Our project will deliver a dramatic increase in tourism in the city centre leading to significant job creation in the tourism and retail sectors as well as enhancing the city’s offer to attract mobile skilled people to the area.
