Angela Jones has become well known for her determined campaign to protect the River Wye from pollution and decline.

In her own words:

“The River Wye runs through my veins. I am fortunate to have experienced over 40 years of swimming, kayaking and wild camping. I appreciate its beauty and diversity. Sharing this joy over the last 14 years has been my constant companion Jack - my rescue dog and co-adventurer.

I feel privileged that this is my home, my office and my playground, and I am very protective of this magical gem. Every day the Wye continues to intrigue, surprise and delight. Getting to know it over the many years has been a fascinating journey.

I utilise my media platform to Protect the environment , show how wonderful the great outdoors is and inclusive to all while promoting the numerous health benefits through nature.”

Angela will talk to us about her work to protect the Wye and explain how we can all get involved in protecting and looking after our rivers.
