I WAS invited to a meeting of the Inland Waterways Association to see a slide show entitled Crusade On The Rivers.

It was suggested a group was formed to be called the Yorkshire Ouse Corridor Section, with membership open to all who attended that evening.

David Meigh, from City of York Council, plus member officers of the waterways association, gave a wonderful presentation.

Suggestions and ideas on the future of the Ouse were boundless.

I realise many York citizens interested in the development of the Ouse and Foss would have enjoyed the evening of positive ideas that came forward.

I hope the group will let the Press know about future meeting boost the number of supporters of this association, which will serve our river for years to come.
