Tune into Rambling About Rivers to find out more about the threats facing rivers and what you can to do help.

17: Reflecting on The Rivers Trust journey
Friday, 20 January, 2023

The new year provides the perfect opportunity to reflect on how far we have come and look ahead to future aspirations. This episode, Emily is joined by The Rivers Trust CEO Mark Lloyd, to discuss the formation and growth of The Rivers Trust movement with Arlin Rickard (former CEO of The Rivers Trust) and Ian Gregg (our current president and past Chairman of Greggs). Both Arlin and Ian were instrumental in the creation of The Rivers Trust. A collection of truly key figures in the Rivers Trust movement chat about their respective roles in its creation and remark on the growth it has seen. As well as looking ahead to future goals and discussing the values at the core of The Rivers Trust movement that need to remain even as the growth continues. A fantastic way to get to know those behind The Rivers Trust and learn more about our journey. If you are looking for a positive, reflective, and at times nostalgic, way to start off 2023, then look no further and give this episode a listen.
