We're delighted to report that our application to Dorset Community Foundation for a grant from the Wessex Water Community Fund has been successful. DCF and Wessex Water have been a huge source of help to our project (with Wessex Water continuing to test our water samples fortnightly at their own expense).

Thank you to everyone who came to the 'Rivers of Hope' workshops on 15th and 16th July - organised by Tracy Bell-Reeves and led by Josh Levene.
Our overall aim was to mobilise communities and key stakeholders to begin developing a Rights of Nature approach for their river. Participants came from organisations like Dorchester Town Council, Devon County Council, Somerset Rivers Authority, the Brit Valley Project and Dorset Wildlife Trust. The rivers they spoke for included:
We learnt about the idea of Rights for Rivers and explored how to take it forward. We plan further meetings with these local rivers and also discussions with Dorset Councillors about how to ensure that our Charter has maximum impact at Dorset Council. If you'd like to be involved in any way, please contact Andrew Carey: [email protected] |
