The household pledge
35 households across the Dart have pledged to protect the river.
The quickest way to help costs nothing. Small changes at home, like what goes down the sink, how a septic tank is looked after and where rainwater goes, add up to a cleaner Dart. It takes two minutes.
Your money pays for evidence
Accredited lab testing is what makes our evidence count: it helped secure upgrades at 16 sites and bathing water status for four. Today our results are checked against an accredited lab every quarter.
- £20One lab test
- £100Five lab tests
- £200Ten lab tests

Volunteer
No experience needed, just a love of the river
We’ll train you to take samples, match you with a site near home and lend you the kit. Or help us with events, data, design or comms.
