Fresh water is essential to all life. Waterbodies such as rivers are home to a surprising diversity of wildlife. They bring many benefits to people too, supporting businesses and communities.
But our freshwater resources, including the River Thames, are in crisis. The Thames Valley is the most densely populated area in the UK and is home to lots of farmland. Because of this, the rivers that feed the Thames are under intense pressure from pollution.
At Earthwatch, we recognise the importance of working with water companies to help make sure that water and sewage are managed carefully. That’s why we’re working with Thames Water, to engage with local communities and help protect fresh water across the Thames Valley.
Thames Water supports community-led projects to monitor the quality of water across the Thames Valley.
