There are significant costs associated organising the March for Clean Water. After all the transport and other costs for local communities to take part have been met, any additional funds will be used for other costs associated with coordinating the March.
The March for Clean Water will involve scores of participating local groups, inspirational and diverse speakers, and well-known personalities. The March is supported by a national coalition including Surfers Against Sewage, Greenpeace, National Trust, WWF and the RSPB, and influential personalities like Feargal Sharkey and Chris Packham. We urge everyone who cares about clean water to unite and march through central London to Parliament Square.
We want to make sure that everyone can afford to be there!
With the cost of living so high, we are raising funds to help cover costs for community groups who might otherwise not be able to afford to come - we want to make sure there are no barriers to communities having their voice heard!
Environmental charities invite the public to join in one simple demand of Prime Minister, Sir Keir Starmer: to take immediate and decisive action to stop the poisoning of our rivers, lakes and seas by the lethal cocktail of raw sewage, agricultural waste and other chemical pollutants, that over recent years have been allowed to leave most of our waterways so filthy that they present major risks to human health and untold damage to nature.
This must include:
- Reform the failed regulatory system;
- Enforce the law;
- Stop polluting for profit
The March is inclusive, accessible, step free and everyone is welcome to join. Marchers are encouraged to wear blue to symbolise clean water; to let their creativity run free and bring noise, placards, puppets, posters, banners, costumes, marching bands and musical instruments. You can find out more and register to come along here.
