Ellie was honoured to take part in the launch of the River Wye Charter, a landmark recognition of the rights of the River Wye and the urgent need to protect and restore the wider catchment.
The Charter highlights the importance of safeguarding the health of the river for future generations and reflects growing public concern about pollution and environmental decline across the Wye catchment. It also recognises the vital role that local communities, campaigners, organisations and public bodies all have to play in securing the river’s future.
The River Wye is deeply valued by communities across Herefordshire, and initiatives such as this demonstrate the strength of local commitment to restoring and protecting one of the area’s most important natural assets.
