The OVA formed a campaigning group called ORCA to fight for improvements in the quality of the river Otter. Polluted by South West Water and poor agricultural practices, the River Otter is in poor ecological health. The team has now been testing the river, engaging with local MP’s, the Environment Agency, South West Water and other interested groups.
Join the Otter Valley Association to learn what water quality data reveals about the health of our river, why it matters, and how informed local action can protect it for the future.
