Working Parties

First Working Party / Second Working Party / Third Working Party

When the Trust was formed the River from Wickford downstream was full of assorted debris, shopping trolleys, cones, bikes, lots of tyres and more.

You can see from the photos some of the devastation caused by the pollution. There were hundreds of dead fish.

We meet in Memorial Park, Wickford. See map for details. Map
