Are you an angler, canoeist, hiker, or wild swimmer? Do you regularly visit one or more UK rivers?
Could you spend 15 minutes monitoring your river in the next week?
Data gathered during Big River Watch can support policy change; helping turn the tide on plastics or stem the flow of untreated sewage.
