The White River project began in 2021, following conversations between local residents, community groups and local councillors. We set up the project to bring all the groups together, with key agencies to protect and enhance the river catchment area of the White River or Vinnick River/Gover Stream as it is called in Cornish language.
The project was nominated to be the main working group of the Kernow Soth Community Area Partnership and have been pleased to work with so many people to develop a vision plan. 100's of people of all ages have contributed to this.
The key aim for the vision is to enable more practical projects in the catchment, to improve water quality, biodiversity and the social and economic environment. Pentewan Parish Council has played a critical role by securing the Community Capacity funding for the Vision Plan and special thanks goes to them and 3 Bays Wildlife Group for all their support. The involvement of agencies and businesses has been much appreciated, particularly the Environment Agency, Woodland Trust, Imerys, South West Water and Westcountry Rivers Trust.
The Vision Plan is a living document and it belongs to the communities who have created it. We are looking forward to more conversations and brilliant ideas on how we can work together to make the catchment event better.
Come and join the White River project Steering Group to see how your ideas and feedback have been transformed into exciting new projects to make the White River catchment an amazing place for people and wildlife. Come and see how you can get involved in the next phase of delivering this work.
