Advocate for clean waterways through Surfers Against Sewage River Action

Speak up for rivers that should be swimmable

SAS River Action helps residents challenge sewage pollution: petitions, sample requests, and media toolkits that turn anger into organised pressure.

What you can do

  • Join River Action campaigns targeting your catchment
  • Request water company monitoring data and share results at parish meetings
  • Pair advocacy with FreshWater Watch sampling so stories have numbers behind them

How it works

Campaign coaches help you set goals: legal letters, councillor questions, or community monitoring. Wins get celebrated publicly to recruit more neighbours.

Why it matters

Rivers belong to everyone who walks their banks: organised voices restore trust and funding for real infrastructure fixes.
