Support your local river
There are numerous ways that you can help…
Rivers Bring Water to Life
We might not realise it, but water is central to almost everything in our day-to-day lives. Without it, no longer would there be lush green countryside, buzzing hedgerows, juicy strawberries or the gin in our G & T. There is no denying that Westcountry rivers are part of us as well as our landscape.
Here at the Westcountry Rivers Trust we are working tirelessly to protect and restore Westcountry rivers. Rivers which supply us with drinking water, nourish our fields and gardens, as well as giving us places to walk, play and relax.

Protect Westcountry Rivers
An iconic part of the Westcountry landscape, rivers bring vital sustenance to even the furthest corners of our countryside. In the Westcountry, you are never further than 2 miles from your nearest river or stream. Help us protect our rivers.
