Speak up for your bathing site and demand designation for the UK’s lakes & rivers and anyone who enjoys them. #ProtectingWildWaters #DemandDesignation
Users of rivers and lakes deserve the same high standard of protection as those who surf, sail and swim at the coast. It’s time to #DemandDesignation. #ProtectingWildWaters
Bathing Water status is crucial in forcing water companies to clean up their act. Protect your swim spot and #DemandDesignation. #EndSewagePollution #SaveOurSeas #SaveOurRivers
Water lover, environmentalist, community member – however you’re connected to your local blue space, you can take the next step needed to shine a light on polluters and water quality by applying for bathing water designation.
Rivers are being shamefully neglected when it comes to legal protection. But more designated river bathing waters will mean water quality must be monitored for harmful bacteria and viruses, and action taken to address this harmful pollution. #endsewagepollution #sewage #saveourseas #saveourrivers #riverpollution #oceanactivists #demanddesignation
Applying for bathing water designation is an important step to ensure your inland or coastal waterway is monitored for bacteria that is harmful to human health. #endsewagepollution #sewage #saveourseas #saveourrivers #riverpollution #oceanactivists #demanddesignation
