Healthy rivers are vital. They are a powerful ally in combating climate change, they support a wealth of biodiversity, and they benefit our physical and mental wellbeing.
- No single stretch of river in England or Northern Ireland being in good overall health.

Uncover the most pressing issues, identify the most polluting industries, explore potential solutions, and understand the need for urgent action to restore our rivers.
