SUMMARY:The Health of Our Rivers: Evidence from the Ock\, Thames\, and Tributaries
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a community gathering to share and discuss the results of nine months of citizen science water quality testing across the Ock catchment and a stretch of the Thames. \nLocal volunteers have been sampling rivers and streams every month\, building a detailed picture of where our waters are healthy and where they are under threat. \nAt this event\, we’ll present the findings\, celebrate the work of our community scientists\, and bring together local people\, the water company\, government representatives and the Environment Agency to talk about what needs to happen next. \nTogether\, we’ll explore how we can take action for cleaner\, healthier rivers for wildlife and for our communities. \nTea\, coffee and light refreshments will be available. \nPlease book your free place using the booking link here. \nHow to get there \nUnit25 is conveniently located in the centre of Abingdon\, in Bury Street shopping centre. \nMany buses serve the town centre\, including the X1\, X15 and 35 from Oxford\, and the 33 from Didcot and Wallingford. \nThere are multiple car parks near Abingdon town centre. \nThis event is run by environmental charity Thames21\, part of the Ock catchment partnership\, which includes the Freshwater Habitats Trust and the Letcombe Brook Project\, along with many others. Together\, we are working for healther rivers and streams across the Ock catchment and the Thames from Oxford to Dorchester.  \nFind out more about the Ock catchment partnership\, and if it covers your local river\, stream or pond here: The Ock Catchment Plan.
