Bristol Living Rivers Project - Community - Riverside Walks

Introduction

Bristol Living Rivers has been working with local community and river groups organising walks along Bristol's hidden rivers & streams for the last few years.

This year is no exception. Following the success of the Bristol Living Rivers 2008 riverside walks, the project is currently putting together a series of riverside walks for 2009.

If you would like to get involved to help organise any of the walks, or have an idea for a new riverside walk, please get in touch with the Project Officer at Bristol Living Rivers on 0117 352 5894.
