Pleasure seekers on Thames boat trips can get a 50 per cent discount on the cost of their outing on Sunday, May 13, as part of the annual Get Afloat day.

Kingston-based companies involved include Turk Launches, Parr Passenger Boats and Harts Cruisers.

They are among 32 boat businesses along the Thames to join the initiative to promote cruising on the river, by offering 50 per cent off all river trips and hire boats to anyone who quotes the Get Afloat offer.
