Charles-Rangeley Wilson's work and advocacy on behalf of Chalk streams is without equal. Google him.

A well-known river environmentalist, author and Wild Trout enthusiast, he has been described as 'capturing the essence of time and place in ways that open your eyes to what you are missing'.

He is now the Chairman of the National Chalk Stream Restoration Group. This will drive progress by government and the regulators, water companies, land managers, NGOs and river associations - right down to the grass roots level of those passionate about their local rivers.

The Cam Valley Forum is spearheading action to protect and enhance the Cam Valley's Chalk streams. Our 'Manifesto', 'Let it Flow! report and sustained advocacy have brought progress locally, regionally and nationally. The outputs from the Chalk Stream Restoration Group will give further impetus to our efforts, and those of many other local groups, to guarantee a future for Chalk streams.

Prior to Charles’ talk, you are welcome to attend the Cam Valley Forum AGM, which will start at 7.30 pm (please log on from 7.20 pm) and run for 20 minutes or so. There will then be a short break. The talk will start promptly at 8 pm (please log on from 7.50 pm if not joining the AGM). The meeting is expected to end at around 9 pm.

Zoom meeting invitations will be sent out to attendees a few days beforehand.
