Building the Hoo Canoe
In 2018 WRT set up a project in partnership with Just42 to build a pirogue canoe from scratch in the Longshed workshop. 6 members of local Youth Club Just42 worked with staff and WRT volunteers on one afternoon a week over 6 months. The completed Hoo Canoe was launched in May 2019. Photos from the project are in the gallery below.
