  • description: Today I visited something really special on the Llangollen Canal… and it completely changed how I see canal boating. The Lyneal Trust run fully accessible narrowboats, making it possible for people with disabilities to experience life on the UK canals. These adapted boats include wheelchair access, accessible layouts, and specialist equipment — opening up narrowboating holidays to so many more people. As a solo female narrowboater living aboard full-time, I know how powerful canal life can be for wellbeing, freedom, and adventure. Seeing how the Lyneal Trust makes accessible canal boating possible was genuinely inspiring. In this video, I: • Tour an accessible narrowboat • Show how wheelchair access works on a canal boat • Meet the volunteers behind the Lyneal Trust • Explore inclusive boating on the Llangollen Canal If you're interested in narrowboat life, canal boating in the UK, or accessible travel, this is something really special. 👉 Learn more or support the Lyneal Trust: https://www.lynealtrust.org.uk/ Thank you so much for watching, and for being part of this little canal community — it means more than you know 🏴‍☠️ Heidi & Bonny 🐾 ------------ If you are new here, I'm Heidi and I live aboard my Narrowboat The Jolly Roger and travel the UK's Canals in search of Adventure. After selling my house to experience an alternative lifestyle I bought a canal boat and a camper van which as a solo female who loves to travel, gives me the best of both worlds. I have recently got myself a new addition to the crew, a fabulous companion - my little rescue dog Bonny who is an absolute joy and the perfect First Mate. I also work full time off grid from my floating home making badges and trading at canal festivals as The Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Pirate Boat. ----------- For more info such as Filming Equipment, FAQ and more: 🏴‍☠️ https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🏴‍☠️ ------------- You can also follow my adventures as the Narrowboat Pirate aboard The Jolly Roger, Pirate Boat here: 🟦 Facebook - https://facebook.com/thenarrowboatpirate 🟥 Instagram - https://instagram.com/thenarrowboatpirate ⬛️ Website - https://thepirateboat.co.uk 🟨 Music - https://heidimanning.bandcamp.com ------------- 🎵 Music 🎹 A Lovely Pair by Heidi Manning Bonny the Brave by Heidi Manning Ballad of the Buccaneer by Heidi Manning The Jolly Roger by Heidi Manning The Thrusting Cutlass by Heidi Manning ------------ 🥃 If you would like to buy me a Rum you can do here : https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thepirateboat/ ------------- 🅿️ Alternative way to buy a virtual Rum via Paypal : https://PayPal.me/TheNarrowboatPirate/ ------------- ❤️ Become a Patreon and long term supporter on the channel: The Narrowboat Pirate https://www.patreon.com/TheNarrowboatPirate ------------- #narrowboating #canallife #llangollencanal #accessibleboating #accessibletravel #ukcanals #boatlife
