The Pride of Sefton

Connecting young people and the community with Liverpool’s historic waterways.

about us

The Pride of Sefton is a wide beam community canal boat on Liverpool’s historic waterfront, proudly run by The Florrie. It has been transformed into a floating classroom and creative space for young people, families, and the wider community. From the Steer Your Future youth programme to community events and private hire, the boat provides unique opportunities to learn, celebrate, and explore the city’s waterways.
