We are creating a community art project and need your help for materials. Let’s not blindly let textiles go to landfill, let’s give them a new life. Working with The Royal Society we are looking at our local river and celebrating how it has gathered us here in this place and how we can protect it. If you want to know more about the swale and what you can do get in touch with the fantastic Save Our Swale group
