Thanks for supporting the National Forest!

In a historic first for the UK, the River Wye has been formally recognised as a living ecosystem with its own rights, including the right to flow naturally, thrive, and remain free from pollution!

The new charter is the result of years of campaigning to protect the river, which has suffered from severe pollution linked to sewage discharges and agricultural runoff.

Supporters hope the recognition will help strengthen conservation efforts and encourage greater accountability for those harming the river's health.

For Sir David Attenborough 💚🐒

This well dressing in Etwall took 36 volunteers more than 320 hours to complete!

Rice, catkins, petals and lentils are among some of the things used to create it.
