Callling all communities on the Barrow and Suir . Join us online this week for a workshop focused on establishing Rivers Trust in each catchment. This session will explore the next steps in developing a collaborative and ultimately successful Rivers Trust CLG.
If you haven't yet booked, we'd like to invite you to one short online session. Each one covers:

Reflections on the stakeholder engagement process
The key recommendations arising from it
How the initial steering group will be formed — and how to put yourself forward
If you'd like a role in getting your river's trust off the ground, this is the session to attend.

Or email [email protected]

There are two sessions per river, both covering the same ground — just come to whichever suits. You only need to attend one.

.Our Communities Caring for Water Discussion Group in Durrow brought together farmers, community groups and water experts for a day of shared learning, practical solutions and inspiring conversations. Most importantly, we met the farmers who are taking positive action to protect water quality through nature-based measures on their farms as we were joined by farmers Tomas Murphy and Jerry Lanigan . Thanks to for hosting us. We began the day with a Citizen Science Kick Sampling session led by our ecology student interns, Clodagh and Caoimhe, who guided participants in identifying the healthy and unhealthy indicator species that help us understand the health of our rivers. Conor Cleere, Farming for Water Advisor, highlighted practical nature-based solutions that can improve water quality on farms. During the panel discussion, participating farmer Jerry Lanigan shared his experience of introducing wetland buffers and bunded drains on his farm. This farmer-led project demonstrates how restoring wetlands, planting native trees and enhancing biodiversity can make a positive contribution to water quality.We also welcomed Fulbright Scholar Richie Kessler from the Green River Conservancy, Kentucky, alongside LAWPRO Senior Community Water Officer Maggie Morrissey, who shared the importance of collaboration and community action in protecting our waterways.
The day concluded with a visit to Tomás Murphy's farm to see a woodland buffer designed by Feidhlim Harty and planted with native trees grown by Graine Native Tree Nursery from seed collected in the Nore Catchment.
The message from the day was simple: protecting our rivers is a shared responsibility, and by working together, communities and farmers can make a real difference. Thanks to the wonderful hospatality The Castle Arms Hotel where the conversations continued over dinner. This event was supported by Farming for Water and LAWPRO. .ie
