Little Venice is just a short paddleboard away or relax on a boat trip along the Regents Canal. The world is your oyster! Cast your net further afield and take the train to the South West for a real coastal adventure! Adventures start here. #ExplorePaddington
Buy a Morph at Auction
When the Trail ends, the super-sized Morph sculptures will be auctioned to raise funds for Whizz Kidz. Whizz Kidz supports young people by providing the wheelchairs, equipment, support and confidence-building experiences they need, and campaigning for a more inclusive society. We hope to raise enough funds in the auction to allow 100 more young wheelchair users across England, Scotland and Wales be mobile, enabled and included.
