Join poet and former Canal Laureate Jo Bell as she discusses her memoir Boater - a smart, funny, and deeply personal account of life on England’s inland waterways.
For over twenty years, Jo has travelled the canals, meeting extraordinary people and navigating a world shaped by history, community, and quiet adventure. In Boater, she explores the joys and challenges of life afloat, from biscuit-fuelled mornings to navigating heartbreak and the treacherous Bristol Channel.
This is a celebration of an alternative nation on water - rich in character, charm, and resilience - and a rare glimpse into a life lived always at home, always on the move.
