Dyno-Rod & Canal and River Trust
At Dyno Rod, water is at the heart of everything we do – from keeping homes and businesses flowing to responding when problems arise.
That’s why we’ve partnered with the Canal & River Trust, the charity dedicated to caring for over 2,000 miles of canals and rivers across England and Wales.
Together, we’re working to help protect these vital waterways, support local communities and make a positive environmental impact across the UK.
A natural partnership
Our partnership with the Canal & River Trust brings together two organisations connected by a shared goal: keeping water flowing safely and responsibly.
We’re proud to support work that protects the environment and keeps these important spaces thriving for generations to come.
“When we began our search for a charity partner, we were looking for an organisation that is serious about environmental protection, aligns with what we do as a company, and shares our values. We believe that, in the Canal & River Trust, we have found an organisation that meets all of these criteria while bringing joy to the millions of people who use and enjoy these spaces every year.” – Noel Callaghan, Dyno-Rod Business Support Manager

Making a difference in communities across the UK
Dyno Rod is built on a network of locally owned businesses, rooted in the communities they serve.
This partnership creates opportunities for our franchisees to:
- Support local waterway projects
- Take part in community clean ups and conservation work
- Build stronger connections within their local areas
- Help protect the environment close to home
Working both nationally and locally, we’re able to turn shared ambition into real, on-the-ground impact.
“We're proud to be partnering with Dyno-Rod, and for them to be working with us to protect our 2,000-mile network of waterways. We are a national charity protecting local canals which mean so much to the people who live near and spend time by them. We are excited to see how our partnership will grow and develop, and look forward to working with Dyno-Rod local franchisees and national colleagues to make a huge difference to our work.” – Will Brookes, Senior Partnerships Manager (Corporate)
