Story
During the pandemic I couldn't simply sit still whilst on furlough. I decided to clean the river running through my town making it safer and more attractive for the local residents and visitors, and also a better habitat for wildlife.
In 2023 and moving forward I will be increasing the number of children's nature walks I do which highlight our beautiful river from the source with its rare chalk spring and blow wells all the way out to sea.
I hope what I do inspires others to care. Taking your small piece of the world and making it better in whatever capacity is so rewarding. It doesnt have to be over ambitious as change can be simple yet effective.
The work I do on the river depends on company sponsorship and your generosity to continue.
For those that want to help in a non financial capacity, 2023 will see other alternatives in which you can assist.
Thank you so much for your positivity and support.

2 years agoThank you to ALL of you that support me. Your donations help massively to keep me doing what I'm doing. I don't update on here very often but things are going well. I scooped an Environmental Award from Radio Humberside and my nature walks and mindfulness canoe trips are going well. Check them out on Facebook. All the best Jim

2 years agoThank you so much everyone for your support. It's pats on the back and a few quid that keep me on the river!! The Freshney looks really nice this time of year, but fingers crossed for at least a little bit of rain 🌧 😀 Jim x
