River Detectives Workshop – Bristol

Do you live in or near central Bristol? Would you be interested in becoming a regular citizen science volunteer?

BART are recruiting volunteers in the central Bristol area to become River Detectives. Each River Detective is assigned a site on one of their local streams or rivers and will take monthly samples to monitor water quality.

We need volunteers on the Floating Harbour, New Cut, main River Avon, and Sitson Brook.

There will be a training workshop at 2pm on Tues 27th February at Bathurst Basin. At the workshop, volunteers will: learn how to take water quality samples, be assigned sites, and pick up their water testing kits.

If you would like to be a River Detective in the central Bristol area but cannot make the workshop, please contact Amy (see below) and we should be able to make alternative arrangements.

If you are interested or have any questions, please contact amy@bristolavonriverstrust.org
