Absolutely delighted that Robbie Moore MP and Defra UK have approved more designated #BathingWaters including our very own #Ribble. Ribble Rivers Trust put a lot of hard work into securing this on behalf of the thousands of people who us it, and the #river itself

This might look like any old field, but this little section of Worston Brook is about to get a whole lot better! You're looking at the site of our next Natural Flood Management (NFM) project which will reduce flood risk to Clitheroe. Learn more about NFM ribbletrust.org.uk/what-is-natura…

There is still time to book onto our next Trawden farm group meeting! We'll be discussing ways that NFM grants can work alongside farm practice, how these schemes can benefit the farm, and what funding opportunities are available for farmers. See below for more details 👇

Little Lad and Dad out for a litter-pick this evening around Tawd Valley Park. We managed to get two bags full.

To say that this was a scary find next to the #Ribble #Bathing #Water is somewhat of an understatement

Last year I knuckled down on the Himalayan Balsam here. This year I’ve had to remove just 8 plants. Concerted effort can make a big difference!

Seen so much Giant Hogweed around this year… Families warned of flourishing giant hogweed. bbc.com/news/articles/…

Seems I’m not the only one who likes the fragrance of Small Leaved Lime #trees easy to forget their importance as a source of pollen and nectar for #bees - oh and of course #water 😉
