Uniting For the Coquet – the launch of the Coquet River Action Group (CRAG)
‘Coquet River Action Group’ (CRAG) is being formally launched on September 12th 2024 and we would like to invite you to the launch event.
CRAG is a newly formed umbrella organisation, currently bringing together nine local groups – including parish councils, environmental groups & women’s Institutes as well as the Northumberland Rivers Trust to contribute to the maintenance and improvement of the River Coquet.
With a CRAG Citizen Science project, groups are carrying out water quality testing along the length of the Coquet from Thropton to the coast. CRAG will be using the data to build knowledge and understanding of the issues affecting the river and its catchments.
We plan to develop links, collaborate and share information with all key stakeholders and communities to support the long-term sustainability of the river.
Hosted by Steve Lowe from the Northumberland Rivers Trust, there will be speakers from CRAG, Northumbrian Water, Northumberland Wildlife Trust and National Landscapes covering a diverse range of subjects which impact the river.
The launch event is being held in Swarland Village Hall, Coast View, Swarland, NE65 9JG at 7.30pm. Tea, coffee and biscuits will be available from 7.15pm.
For more information, contact CRAG@coquetriveractiongroup.org.
We look forward to seeing you there!
