Registered charity
Four miles of riverbank, looked after by about sixty people
We clear, plant, survey and open the path. Nobody here is paid more than the part-time coordinator.

What we do
Four kinds of work
Clearing
Litter, fly-tipping and the invasive species that arrive with the floods.
Planting
Bank stabilisation, and trees where the shade will do most good.
Surveying
Monthly water quality and an annual count, both published.
Opening the path
So the bank is somewhere people go rather than somewhere they drive past.
Twelve pounds a month keeps a mile clear
Or come on a Saturday and do it with your hands instead.
