We're working with partners on the exciting LIFE R4ever Kent project, which will see these little ones released at chosen locations! #speciesrecovery #rivers #cumbria

There is one last opportunity to attend this free training, where you will learn all about river invertebrates and how to #monitor your local river! #cumbria #citizenscience #waterquality

This week the team have been out installing data loggers across the catchment. They provide us with vital data so we can assess the impact of any interventions we've carried out, like natural flood management. #monitoring #cumbria #teamwork

Thanks to everyone who came and spoke to us at the LangdaleGala on Sunday. We had a great time talking riverfly, pledge action and crafting dragonfly! #rivers #CommunityEngagement #whataview

Thank you to our attendees in the #duddonvalley last week. What would be a #riverfly training course without rain anyway :) #Rivers #volunteering #waterquality

We've been out doing lots of Electrofishing recently and there is still time to get involved - Just look how happy these volunteers are #WorldBlueMindDay #rivers #Cumbria

It's a busy time for SCRT as our Electrofishing season continues across our catchment areas. We also have a leaky dam installation event coming up in September - come on down! scrt.co.uk/events/leaky-d… #Volunteer #Rivers #tuesdaymotivations

Sammy has been out spotting invasive species - this is Monkeyflower. Although it may displace native riparian plants it doesn't cause a sig. risk to natural ecosystems like Himalayan Balsam or Japanese Knotweed. Read more here: nonnativespecies.org/assets/Uploads…

Our Reedbed Revival Project is getting underway. We're busy creating a plan of action for maintenance days, engagement and planting sessions. Keep an eye out for events, with Lake District Foundation #restore #Lovewindermere

The #BigRiverWatch is back! Help survey your local #rivers between 6-12th September. Find out more here: theriverstrust.org/take-action/th… #cumbria #ThursdayThoughts

You have until Thursday to get involved! All you have to do is download the app and visit your local river - the sun is shining in South Cumbria too🌞#rivers #cumbria #infoiskey

If you're out at the Westmorland Show, head over to talk to colleagues working with us on the LIFE R4ever Kent project! #rivers #showtime #species

There are 10 new leaky dams in the Winster valley thanks to one excellent #volunteer and two SCRT staff members! Leaky dams slow the flow and trap sediment - improving floodplain connectivity, water quality and reducing flood risk downstream! #Cumbria #delivery #dayinthelifeof

Another annual Patrons event done - this year it was all about LIFE R4ever Kent! We got to tour the fantastic Freshwater Biological Association (FBA) species recovery centre to see Freshwater Pearl Mussels, ending in Kentmere learning all about our river restoration work! #dayout #Cumbria

We've completed a massive 1km of river restoration in the Poaka catchment this summer. A significant de-culverting, riparian fencing, wetland scrapes and leaky dams! Read more about it 🔎 scrt.co.uk/news/culverts-… #habitat #rivers #Cumbria

What a lovely day last week when the Environment Agency visited the River Kent to check the water quality sondes. Sadly, the case around the sensor had come off; to limit further damage the sonde was removed. Replacement sondes came days later so only a few days of data was lost.

In collaboration with Urswick, Bardsea and Stainton Parish Council, we have been out #waterquality testing around Urswick Tarn, in order to understand the pressures this system faces. A12 month programme, looking at catchment issues and diffuse pollution inputs #FridayVibes

We are the South Cumbrian hub for this brilliant #citizenscience programme. We will have some dates coming up in April and May - watch this space! #volunteer #monitoring

🌍 Science-led action is at the heart of #LoveWindermere. Understanding the lake’s health is the first step to protecting it. Read A Changing Windermere report & discover how you can take action today - lovewindermere.co.uk/a-changing-win… #WindermereScience #ResearchMatters

Anyone for riverfly training?! 🤩 #volunteers #monitoring #rivers
