The Association seeks to promote the canal and its surroundings as an amenity for all users, whether walkers, anglers, boaters or a canal related business. At the same time it is intent on preserving the canals rural character.
“Spout” is published quarterly and delivered to all members of the Association.
The ACA organise canal - related talks through each winter at the MIRA Social Club (by the A5 at Nuneaton) usually at 7.30 on the second Monday of the month. Check our web-site for details. Entry is free, non-members are welcome and a bar service is available.
The ACA plays a major role in organising the annual Shackerstone Family Festival and boat rally in early September and fully supports the Ashby Canal Trust and their annual Moira Canal Festival held in June.
The Association is a registered charity with 500 members; it receives no funding from any official source. The ACA is affiliated to the Inland Waterways Association.
