The latest good news is that the community groups involved in improving the watery environment of the Blackwater Valley have made a connection with the South East Rivers Trust (SETR) The Rivers Blackwater, Whitewater and Hart are 3 of 19 rivers and streams in the Loddon Catchment Area . According to the SERT all the waterbodies in the Loddon catchment are considered to be in ‘Moderate’, ‘Poor’ or ‘Bad’ ecological health. We are looking forward to meeting the Catchment Officer for the Loddon and working with SETR to improve the quality of the water network and catchment in our area.
