Eid Festival Waterways Cleanup

Join in with other locals and get afloat and clean the Limehouse Cut Canal at Poplar Union! This month's event is celebrating Eid!

Welcome to the Poplar Pick up!

Join us at Poplar Union for a day of making our waterways cleaner and greener. Grab your trash bag and jump in a boat or on a paddleboard, and let's work together to rid the waterways of plastic waste. Whether you're a seasoned canoeist or trying it for the first time, all are welcome!

You don't need any special equipment, everything is provided, but bring a change of clothes and shoes just in case you get splashed.

Kayaks seat two people, so you can come along with a friend or family member (you'll both need a ticket) or pair up with someone new when you arrive.

Participants of all ages are welcome, but under 18's must have a parent or guardian in the boat with them and be supervised at all times.

Let's show some love to our waterways and make a positive impact on the community.

Please make sure you arrive promptly, as those who miss the safety briefing will not be able to join in. 

See you there!
