River Restoration in the Chilterns – Guest Speaker: Adrian Porter, Chilterns Chalk Stream Project

Hear how techniques like ‘re-wiggling’ and ‘backwater features’ have succeeded on our neighbouring rivers, like the Hamble Brook, and how success was measured. Discover how they might be employed on the Ver over the next decade to improve the condition of our river and the biodiversity of its flora and fauna.

There will still be time to book one of the guided walks along the Ver and plan your visit to Verulamium Park on 21st June to celebrate the Society’s 50th anniversary. The evening will also include short reports on the current state of the river, notable wildlife sightings, E. coli testing results, the latest Ver Valley news and plenty of time for any questions from the floor.
