What does a healthy river mean to you?

We all know that a healthy river provides a thriving river ecosystem🐟 and biodiversity 🦦, fresh drinking water, and opportunities for river dipping🏊.

We also know that spending time in nature 🍃 is good for you. But did you know that a recent study found visiting 🌊rivers and canals was associated with a greater improvement in mental well-being🙂 compared to time spent in outside green spaces?

Just imagine the health benefits of visiting the river in Rodden Meadow... a river in a meadow; that's a double whammy!

When disabled people share their own stories, the impact is undeniable.

In 'Journey Through Time and Climate', learning-disabled artists don’t just highlight barriers - they invite us to see the world differently.🌍

💬As Robin Meader, artist explains: "Climate change affects us because it is scary, its isolating. If I couldn't use the bus it would make me sit in a room with four walls and feel like the walls are caving in. Policy makers don't always listen to us, when there is a problem, they never look into it. I would like to say, if we had more buses and more choice, then more people would use them. There would be less cars on the road, so less carbon. Our film shows people how it feels to be vulnerable on the bus, when the weather and world around you is changing."

👉 After watching our film, has it made you see that climate change affects us all differently❓
