There’s still time to join our Community Share events in Midlothian this week and next - FREE SOUP and community conversations with a focus on the protection and improvement of the Lothian Esk rivers.

Can we prevent incidents like the one our project officer saw recently?

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

Let's protect our natural environment from damaging fatbergs and unsightly wet wipe rags! 🔁REPOST🔁 + get involved. #Unblocktober2024 #RiverHealth #SaveOurRivers #thethreePs #OnlyRainDownTheDrain #NonFlushables #NatureCalls #BanWetWipes #StopPlasticPollution #WipeOutPlasticWipes

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

- Increased awareness: campaigns like Unblocktober should be highlighted nationally with MPs showing their support
- More consideration on ‘single use’ plastics + how to prevent them littering our sewers, rivers + seas.
Help make a difference today!

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

You can find a suggested paragraph at the end of our blog. https://t.co/GKlebMk0zM

We’re asking for:
- A clearer timetable on the current ‘transition period’ before the proposed 2026 ban
- Production accountability: label wipes ‘binnable’ or ‘do not flush’...

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

Unblocktober may be over, but the battle to save our sewers rivers and seas continues + here’s how you can do your bit TODAY: we want you to email your MP to ensure the wet wipe ban is effective!

Go to https://t.co/8zfrCmV1Wm and get in touch with your MP (House of Commons rep)

This long term care is so important when it come to tree planting success, and we were delighted to see last year's planting doing so well. #trees #rivers #ripariantreeplanting #coldcleanwater #climatechangeresilience #biodiversity #teamwork #workingtogther

[Forth Rivers Trust @ForthRiversT]

Massive kudos to staff from Highland Spring who came out to plant native trees on the Danny Burn, a tributary of the Allan Water, for the 3rd year in a row! 22 staff members planted over 220 new trees and also lovingly maintained over 662 trees that were planted before.

❌Balloons are BAD for wildlife: plastic pollution makes us sad☹️❌
While out on a remote peatland survey last week, a colleague spotted this deflated helium balloon... we're proud you passed your exams too, but please keep your balloons under control!
