Chug had a great day at the Shoreditch festival on Hoxton Market.

Children and adults alike joined in with traditional canal painting of roses and castles on plates.

Homemade cakes looked delicious and were sold, and all donations collected were towards laburnum boat club’s fund towards a new fleet of boats. Plates made great decoration, enjoyed by the chug community at our annual party.

Come along to the next open day for more traditional plate painting.

Families came as far as Croydon and enjoyed the East End community spirit, Riley and his nan in particular. They promised to come back for the next open day and visit our lovely canal.
