Citizen Science: Know your river – Rivers as a resource for all. @WarwickLifeSci looking at water quality and recreational use of rivers in England

[Nicholas Tucker @Tucker303]

Fascinating #citizenscience project @knowyourriverUW presented by @chiara_borsetto about AMR in coliforms isolated from rivers. #microbio23

[Iruka Okeke @iruka_okeke]

@chiara_borsetto is using #CitizenScience @knowyourriverUW to see how anthropomorphic activity, incl pollution is impacting #antibioticresidues & #AMR in British rivers @MicrobioSoc #microbio23

[Sustainable Cities @CitiesGRPUoW]

An insightful talk on 'Investigating Pollution & Antimicrobial Resistance in Rivers To Safeguard Human Health' by @chiara_borsetto from @uniofwarwick

First international conference for KYR! Thanks @ElizabethWelli1 for sharing our citizens’ efforts! #EDAR6 #AMR @WarwickLifeSci

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

🚨After a few busy months, the results of our project are finally ready!!! Check them out on our website! https://t.co/9pUyBOdKxE 🚨 #AMR #rivers #pollution

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

🚨 Last chance to tell us how you use rivers and what you think their pollution status is! Survey closing on 10 July! https://t.co/ZTGbHM8hjS

@RunSurreyHills @SimonDGriffiths Yes, we are selecting for coliform bacteria (including E. coli)

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Microbiological and chemical analyses are in progress! Interesting resistance profiles are showing in some samples, including E. coli (blue colonies). #AMR #pollution

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Great to see citizen scientists collecting samples! There is still time to take part in the project by filling in our survey! https://t.co/cgybUTuk5A

[Simon Griffiths: Publisher, Author, Swimmer @SimonDGriffiths]

Collecting my water samples yesterday for @knowyourriverUW citizen science investigation #cleanrivers
I think there's still time to take part. Check https://t.co/QlysiKl1Qt

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Thanks to our citizen scientists, all available sampling kits have been sent out! Requests are now closed. Many kits now back and being processed – if you still have your kit please can you sample and return it by 30th June. Analysis updates soon! #cleanwater #citizenscience #AMR

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

@SimonDGriffiths @SimonDGriffiths thanks for taking part! We are looking forward to receiving the sample 😊

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

@Keli_ann_O Hi, thanks for checking our map. Samples analyses are in progress, the microbiology takes a while to allow bacterial growth. We are planning to update the analysis page on our website in the near future… watch this space!

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Thanks to all our citizen scientists, samples are coming in from all around England! 🎉

Last chance to order sampling kits via our website! 🚨

Complete our survey https://t.co/ZTGbHMpSIs to contribute to our understanding of river usage. #cleanrivers @outdoorswimming #angling #boating #RiverWalks

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Great to say this initiative by @stwater to clean up the Rivers Leam and Teme for #wildswimming. A step forward #cleanrivers

[BBC Midlands @bbcmtd]

Leam bathing river plans brilliant, says wild swimmer https://t.co/9JIwJIdsPd

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

We are expanding our sampling area to all of England!!! Join our #CitizenScience team and request a sampling kit! How clean is your local river? And don't forget to tell us how you enjoy rivers! #River https://t.co/n3bnskZXtH

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Interesting E.coli (in blue) are showing on our selective plates from your river water samples...Are they going to be resistant to antibiotics? #AMR #cleanwater #waterpollution Test your local river by sending us a sample. Request a kit here https://t.co/0J6LFBAML9

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

First samples are back! 🎉 Thanks to our citizen scientists for their help! If you haven’t requested your kit yet, there is still time! https://t.co/yVArfVYj0X

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

More sampling kits are ready! Request a kit at https://t.co/sSr5AomtGJ and help understanding #riverpollution and #AMR

[KnowYourRiver_UoW @knowyourriverUW]

Do you enjoy rivers and want to be a scientist for a day? We are looking for river water samples. If you want to be involved in the project collecting a sample, send us a request for a sampling kit. #CitizenScience #pollution #AMR
