Every drop tells a story.
It's time we listened.
No single stretch of river in England is in good overall health1.
Test your river. Add its voice to the living map. Build the case for cleaner water in the UK.
We're using science to advocate for change.
Most pollution data for the UK's rivers comes from the water companies doing the polluting.
We're working with charities and advocates to monitor our waterways, giving them an independent voice.
And helping you to make informed decisions.
We actively track sewage discharges around the UK and combine it with user contributed water quality data to help you decide when to visit your favourite spots.
Using ISO and EPA laboratory methods, we're generating a high quality dataset and we're making it public.
We're starting with nitrate, phosphate and E. coli quantification, typical markers of pollution in our waterways. For just £35 (or £55 for two samples) you can add your data to the map by purchasing one of our test kits.
We are proud to perform all of the testing ourselves, we do not outsource. We keep our costs low, investing any profits into making our testing more accessible.

One sample. One datapoint. One step closer to cleaner water.
