About this event

  • Event lasts 1 hour 30 minutes

Everyone is welcome to this event organized by the Chilterns Chalk Streams Project - CCSP (https://www.chilternstreams.org/). Children supervised please.

On the survey day we will give a quick demo of the kick sampling technique and give people the opportunity to have a try.

We will then have a look at our samples and see what we can identify.

Bring wellies if you want to get in the water (this is not compulsory and the water will be lower than knee high).

You don't have to stay the whole session, but please sign up so we can plan enough equipment for all of you.
