Surge members have been training as @thames21 rive Surge members have been training as @thames21 river clean up leaders over the last couple of weeks. We were working on the start of a great project reclaiming a water run-off from the old Millfields sewage works, no longer in use. From there this river runs out into the Lea navigation. Sadly due to the adjacent graffiti park the culvert is full of old paint cans, this was the second day so we had made a dent but the previous clean up removed 40 BAGS of paint cans...! Hopefully with volunteers starting to work here this will have an impact on those creating the waste, and bring awareness to the need for radical change! Looking forward to planning our next river clean up on the #channelseariver 💦

The time finally came for us to launch the floatin The time finally came for us to launch the floating habitat we made last year (with support from @peoplesbiz) into the middle of the river, a quieter spot where it is already attracting birds of all kinds! We’re making a film of the home it is becoming, at this bend in the river, as part of the wonderful @newhamheritagemonth happening throughout June - watch out for the full film to be released on summer solstice, June 21st, along with lots of other great content! #thebendintheriverismyhome #newhamheritagemonth #floatinghabitat #liverfortheriver #habitat #floatingisland #coot #geese #wagtail #ChannelseaRiver #Bowcreek #biodiversity #community #coop
