Staff at Aqueduct Marina are proud to announce that they have chosen to support the work of a local charity, My CWA, with a series of fundraising events throughout 2026.

Cheshire Without Abuse, now known as My CWA, supports individuals and families affected by domestic abuse by giving people access to early help, guidance, counselling, and safe spaces when they need them most.

My CWA is a Cheshire‑based charity supporting individuals, families and children affected by domestic abuse. Formerly known as Cheshire Without Abuse, they’ve been helping people in our community for almost 50 years, offering compassionate, practical support and a whole‑family approach to recovery and safety. They do this by offering 24/7 domestic abuse helpline: available day or night to listen, advise and signpost support for adults and children affected by abuse.

Crisis refuge accommodation for those who need an immediate safe place to escape abusive situations.

Robert Parton, Aqueduct’s MD, said, ” We’re incredibly proud to be supporting My CWA throughout 2026. We’ll be running a number of fundraising activities across the marina, including all staff, helping to raise vital awareness and funds so they can continue their life-changing work for women, men, and children in our community.” To begin with, the Aqueduct team will be taking part in a sponsored walk up Yr Wyddfa (Mount Snowdon) on the 16th of May.

Plans are also underway for what could be ‘the world’s slowest duck race’ on the canal close to Aqueduct’s Church, Minshull base and will take place on the 18th of July, so for more information on either event, visit the Aqueduct Marina website at www.aquedutmarina.co.uk.
