Where we work

We're bringing rivers back to life across the South East of England. Our area covers 12 catchments from Basingstoke to Dover.

Explore the rivers we restore

From chalk streams and urban rivers to lowland waterways and wetlands, every river has its own story. We work across 12 river catchments in South East England, helping rivers thrive again for communities and nature. Find your local river below and discover the projects, people and wildlife helping to bring it back to life.
