We've been delivering free #waterbutts in #Corsham as part of our #NaturalFloodManagement works in the area.While we are working up in the headwaters, even small steps like having a water butt or limiting paved areas in urban areas can contribute to a reduction in flood severity!

How much do many people in #Bristol value their #rivers?....

All sorts of sexy river rewiggling stuff happening - gravel and sandbanks emerging, new braided channels, deep pools, spawning redds, etc etc

The difference in habitats is unreal over what it was six months ago

Been planting trees and scrub to mix up the bank corridors

Make 2020 the year that you find out more about your local water catchment and how you can help reduce flooding events downstream on your farm @hillstolevels #slowtheflow #naturalfloodmanagement #FWAGresolutions https://t.co/kTiPZ14Wic

BART have completed the Caring for the Cam project, made possible by a generous grant from players of People's Postcode Lottery through @plocaltrust. It enabled 650 metres of fencing to protect the brook, 240 trees planted by volunteers and 2 fantastic community river events!

[Bristol Avon Rivers @BristolAvonRT]

A HUGE thank you to the brilliant volunteers from @avon_angling and beyond who spent their Saturday planting 240 native trees along the Cam Brook! This will make a crucial difference to the brook and it's bankside habitat and build resilience to climate change! 🌳🌳🌳
