Herts Rivers Week
Welcome to the very first Herts Rivers Week – a celebration of our globally rare and beautiful chalk rivers.
Through a week of inspiring events, walks, talks, and family activities, you’ll have the chance to explore these precious waterways, learn about the wildlife they support, and discover the challenges they face.
But it’s more than just a celebration – it’s a call to action. Find out how simple changes in your daily life can help protect our rivers, from reducing water waste to joining a river clean-up or spreading the word, every action matters.
Join Us for an Event!
Explore local wildlife on the Chalk Stream Explorer, join a guided Dragonfly Walk, and hear from leading experts on the threats facing our rivers and how we can all help to protect them.
Help Protect Our Chalk Rivers
Our chalk rivers are globally rare and right on our doorstep – but they’re under serious threat. Whether it’s saving water at home or calling on your MP to support stronger legal protection, every action counts. Take one action this Herts Rivers Week — or better yet, try them all —and be part of the movement to protect Hertfordshire’s precious waterways for the future.
Find out how Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust is working with communities and organisations to restore and protect our rivers for future generations.
