Adopt a reach

Four hundred metres of river, monitored fortnightly, for a year. You get the readings; the reach gets the sampler.

Ford Lane

£340 / year

The hardest reach in the catchment. Two open nitrate exceedances and an outfall that has not been surveyed since 2019.

51.4mg/l NO₃0.088mg/l P

£280 / year

Stable, well-recorded and useful as a reference. Adopting it funds the baseline everything else is measured against.

22.7mg/l NO₃0.042mg/l P

£310 / year

Where two catchments meet, which makes it the most argued-over reading in the county and the one most worth having properly.
