What if the whole country saw the full picture? This is a national emergency. The impacts are already here.
But the solutions exist.

Across the UK, communities are watching The People’s Emergency Briefing & discussing what to do next.

⚠️⏰ This can’t wait.

Help us pressure supermarkets to clean up their polluting supply chains.

Agricultural pollution is a major driver of river pollution in the UK.

Yet products linked to industrial-scale farming systems that can damage rivers continue to be sold at scale on supermarket shelves.

This system is broken - and too often, no one is held to account.

Supermarkets have the power to fix it through their supply chains. And we’re making sure they do.

💥 Between 22nd-29th April ONLY, donations will be DOUBLED through the @BigGive.

Donate now and help us ensure change - for our rivers, wildlife, and future.
