I want to see a future of wild, healthy, natural rivers that are for all walks of life. That's why I'm swimming at the Henley Swim Festival this year for The Rivers Trust.
The Rivers Trust want all life to thrive in and around our rivers; humans and wildlife alike. Whether you enjoy fishing, swimming or a riverside stroll, rivers need to be protected, conserved and enhanced to ensure they remain for
future generations.
The Rivers Trust are passionate about protecting rivers and champion the importance of healthy rivers through sharing knowledge online, at schools and through local groups. And with their member Trusts, they regularly organise local conservation events to take action and bring people together.
Sadly rivers are at a point of no return and need urgent action to save them. Take a look at their recent State of Our Rivers Report here: https://www.theriverstrust.org/key-issues/state-of-our-rivers to learn about the many issues impacting your local river.
