This guided walk is an opportunity for people interested in undertaking Water Quality Monitoring as a volunteer Citizen Scientist to see how different pollutants find their way into the River Stour across Canterbury. The tour will visit locations where surface water and sewerage overflow releases have occurred, identify what to look out for, and how to collect and test water samples for ammonia, nitrate and phosphate using simple testing kits.
