TESTIMONIAL
"We were delighted to see the Floating Forest make such an eye-catching impact over the festival period. It’s an impressive piece of work and it has been a real source of amazement at Shoreditch Festival."
Alex Finlayson, Partnerships and Festivals Manager, Shoreditch Trust
"It’s always great to see activities which give people an alternative view of the canal or another perspective on the waterway they use regularly. Floating forest does this well: letting people explore a water space they may have passed many times but never been able to access. Going into Kingsland Basin by water also gives people an insight into the many different things that go on on London’s canals –such as the thriving community of boaters based there."
Henrietta Ross, Marketing and Communications Executive, British Waterways
