Is a charity that offers people who are less abled free trips along the canal in Welshpool. Heulwen means sunshine in Welsh and the Trust hopes to bring a glimmer of sunshine into the lives of people who suffer with a problem whether of the body or of the mind.

We are pleased to be able to provide once more, our peaceful and much loved canal trips, for you to enjoy from the safety of our spacious cabins and open topped front sections. If you are, or know someone who is in need of a safe, relaxing day out, head to our booking page or get in touch.

The Festival is on-track to go ahead this year!
Welshpool Country Music Festival will be running July 18-21, the gates will be open at noon on the 18th and closed for noon 21st.

The Welshpool Country Music Festival is a fund raising event, brought to you by the Heulwen Trust which is a Charity dedicated to providing free boat trips for those who are less abled than most.

Our largest expense is keeping our canal boats water-worthy, which is what the music festival aims to pay for every year, so that we can continue to provide a little sunshine to vulnerable and less abled adults and children in the form of exciting, scenic canal boat trips through some of the most beautiful Welsh countryside.

We have received overwhelming feedback from our amazing festival-goers requesting a simple way to help out with what we do - we have opened a JustGiving campaign as a gateway to provide just that.
