Take a moment to pause and enjoy the gentle flow of the river Ver. Watch the water move, hear the gentle ripples and let your mind slow down. #MindfulMonday #HertsRiversWeek ๐Ÿ“น Debbie Bigg

Day 3 of #30DaysWild from The Wildlife Trusts and with the torrential downpour weโ€™ve just experienced, we noticed an abundance of worms on the walk home from school. ๐Ÿชฑ So we thought, why not give them a new home and watch them do their thing. #compostkings. #wormery #wiggleit

Chalk streams are internationally significant wildlife habitats, but those in North East Hertfordshire are polluted and running dry. Raw sewage dumping and excessive abstraction are to blame. We urgently need new regulations to protect and restore our watercourses.
