SUMMARY:Bristol Avon RiverBlitz 2025
DESCRIPTION:Get involved with water quality monitoring this July for BART’s annual Bristol Avon RiverBlitz. Now in its tenth year\, samples will be collected across the Bristol Avon catchment to test for nitrates and phosphates. The information collected helps us identify pristine waters\, pinpoint pollution hotspots\, and provide a comprehensive overview of water quality and river health. The data from the previous nine years is on our website\, where BART will add this year’s data: https://bristolavonriverstrust.org/riverblitz. \nBART invite everyone in the Bristol Avon area to participate in sampling their local rivers\, streams\, and ditches. This includes the River Avon and all the rivers and streams that flow into it including the River Chew\, the Bristol Frome\, the Somerset Frome\, the River Trym and many more. \nThe 2025 Bristol Avon RiverBlitz will be taking place from Friday 4th July to Friday 11th July with volunteers taking their samples at their convenience between these dates. To register as a volunteer sign up here: https://bristolavonriverstrust.org/riverblitz/register \nRegistration will close on Saturday 28th June. \nJoin hundreds of other volunteer citizen scientists across the Bristol Avon river catchment as we work together to better understand and protect the health of our rivers!
