🚨☀️Summer of #drought? We can no longer think of the UK as a wet country. In 2025 the UK experienced its warmest, driest spring in 50+ years, and the Mediterranean weather could continue throughout the summer. Here's what our CEO Mark Lloyd has said: theriverstrust.org/press-releases…

A brilliant find by our ecologists during surveys in N. Norfolk: the striking Mother Shipton moth (Callistege mi). Named for its wing markings - said to resemble the legendary soothsayer Mother Shipton - this moth thrives in flower-rich grasslands.🔮 #Moths #Ecology

Flashback: What a wonderful way to welcome spring! 🍃 A team of volunteers from @Avivaplc helped make habitat piles in an SSSI woodland in the Wendling Beck catchment. Their work will create more varied and better-connected habitats, supporting the wider ecosystem.

It's crazy that we're building 1.5mn homes & we're not taking the opportunity to make them water efficient. theguardian.com/environment/20…

Our rivers already face pressure from pollution & overuse. Now, the Government’s Planning Bill could put them at even greater risk. Environmental groups have set out how the Bill can be fixed. We’re calling on Peers to push for change. Learn more 👇 theriverstrust.org/about-us/news/…

Well done, Leo! 🎉 While navigating 40km of trails and rivers, Leo smashed his fundraising target. But there's still time to donate! If you'd like to support him on the next leg of his river Bure journey, visit his GoFundMe page 👇 tinyurl.com/2u7w3rx2

#Beavers create wetland habitats rich in insects, shelter, fresh drinking water and navigational landmarks — the perfect stopover or home for bats. Using specialised equipment, we recorded over 10 species of #bats at our beaver enclosure 🤯🦇

On hot days like this one, it becomes painfully obvious how vital it is that we restore Britain's lost wetlands. Our landscapes have been drained and engineered to get rid of water as fast as possible. But water *is life*, and we're running short! Cool, lush wetlands are vital
