We are seeing increased pollution from combined sewage overflows in our villages this year as the result of the sudden heavy rainfall which the system cannot cope with. We are recording data not just for MCS but also for our own SRD (Sewage Related Debris)/Surface Water Action Group to help us engage with Scottish Water to tackle this issue of flooding and pollution as well as the wider community about how we can reduce surface water run off into this system during these kinds of weather events.

We hope you will join us for this event, all ages welcome! Great event for families. Contact Jo on clpnatureaction@gmail.com if any queries.
