A talk at Minima Yacht Club on Wednesday 26th March by Councillor James Manthel and Laura Nee of the Thames Landscape Strategy.
Kingston Councillor James Manthel is coming to Minima Yacht Club to tell us about his latest initiative Mayors For a Drinkable Thames which he launched last autumn with a meeting of six Thames mayors and local organisations.
Inspired by the 2023 Drinkable River Thames River Walk and the mayors’ network on the River Meuse, the initial focus is on monitoring water quality all the way up and down the river. This should then allow informed pressure on Government and water companies.
Councillor Manthel will be joined by Laura Nee, Strategic Project Officer, to tell us about the work and objectives of the Thames Landscape Strategy, where he is Vice Chair of the Executive Review Board. Laura was recently seconded to work with the Kingston Biodiversity team and is instrumental in the riverbank re-naturalisation work in Kingston.
