Our first meeting was extremely well attended with over 20 people from all walks of life interested in the idea of  a Rivers Trust in Essex and Suffolk. I showed the images below to illustrate the area that a Rivers Trust might operate within. Here is a copy of Archie’s presentation: Introducing an Essex and Suffolk Rivers Trust.

We are currently looking for people willing to get stuck in with the formation of the new Rivers Trust – so if you think this might be your thing then please let Archie Ruggles-Brise know.

Thank you!
