Clean Water, Clear Future
Clean Water, Clear Future
River Action is a local, volunteer-led campaigning group dedicated to protecting and restoring the rivers, streams, tidal inlets and drainage channels of the Dengie Peninsula.
We work to highlight pollution issues, monitor the health of our watercourses, and push for stronger action from regulators and landowners.
By engaging our community, promoting evidence-based solutions, and supporting practical clean-up efforts, River Action strives to safeguard the peninsula’s precious waterways for wildlife, residents, and future generations.
We run entirely on volunteer enthusiasm and public donations.
Can you help us out?
Your gift to River Action supports practical, local work towards a cleaner River Crouch 🌱 Together we can restore river habitats, monitor and reduce pollution in the Crouch. We want to protect swimmers, sailors, anglers, wildlife and reduce the degradation of our water ways.
Every donation helps fund water‑quality testing, river clean-ups and active pressure on polluters. Give what you can today to back community‑led action along our river.
