The Blackwater Valley Countryside Trust BVCT have selected us for a grant to help us conserve, protect and enhance the watery environment of the Blackwater Valley. This will be a collaborative project with volunteers from the Climate Cafe and other organizations and individuals. This is early days and we have to meet and work out how to use the funding. The pictures show volunteers testing the water of the Blackwater at various sites: Rowhill, Holybush, Farnborough North Station and downstream from the Ash Vale water treatment. Earthwatch provided testing reagents for nitrates and phosphates.
