The EA ‘The Environment Agency and its partners are holding three targeted Rethinking Water Citizens’ Juries to discuss the important question:
- How do you connect with water in your local environment, and what needs to be changed in the future to benefit people and wildlife?
This is about involving communities in decisions about the future of their local river. Listening and working with others to understand their priorities is an essential element of helping us develop our ambition for water: to lead the way for clean and plentiful water for all.
The citizen juries’ recommendations will be presented to our board and help us prioritise our work to achieve our EA2025 goal of healthy air, land and water.
