Bandon Rivers Trust launches first ever project to protect endangered freshwater species

Mark Lloyd, CEO of The Rivers Trust, will cycle 500 miles in 5 days in September as part of our River Revival campaign.

In our CEOs’ newsletter this month we hear from Simon Evans, CEO of Wye and Usk Foundation. The Wye was in the spotlight this month with the Rivercide documentary highlighting the cumulative impact of poorly regulated farming.

Over the next five weeks, we’re going to help you out by sharing our Five Easy Ways to Revive Your River as part of our River Revival campaign and Take 5 challenge. These are simple, low or zero cost actions you can take at home, in the garden, or at work, to benefit river environments. It’s easy to feel hopeless in the face of the climate and nature crises, but small changes like this can add up to make a big difference. For our first blog in the series we’ll focus on an issue most people are aware of – plastics.

Find out all about invasive species and the threats they pose to freshwater ecosystems.

It’s not always easy to know what you can do to help the environment, especially to protect an ecosystem as complex and interconnected as rivers. But we’re here to tell you that the River Revival begins at home.

When taking steps to protect and improve the environment, it’s important to remember that all of nature is connected. That means the way you manage your garden – or any plants you have for that matter – can have an impact on river health, and the environment as a whole. That’s why this week, we’re focusing on water saving in the garden.
