In addition, the Port regularly invites schools onto the site for tours and tug trips on the canal. Other community activities include the sponsorship of a local children’s football team – Fishersgate Community Association Football Club.

The Board and Management Team regularly make presentations to a variety of local interest groups including Probus, the Chamber of Commerce and local community associations.They also consult widely over major development projects and hold a community Open Day every two years, where the general public are invited to take a look around the Port and meet with staff. The Port plays host to a variety of leisure pursuits, such as fishing and watersports and the redevelopment of the
Lady Bee Marina will also provide additional land to support leisure activities and increase the number of available moorings.
