The River Summit & Festival continues on 5th Sept with a free, community-led day at Mill Meadows, Henley-on-Thames, right by the river.
About this Event

A free event by the Thames, open to everyone. Join us at Mill Meadows for a series of talks and experiences led by HoTWater, Henley's own citizen scientists, alongside special guests including Monica Feria-Tinta.

The morning opens with a river ceremony at 10am, setting the tone for a gathering that is as much about connection as it is about the river itself. Come and discover what citizen scientists are doing on this stretch of the Thames, hear inspiring talks and share your own stories with the people around you.

We close together with a shared picnic by the river so bring your own lunch and join the whole community for a moment to breathe, connect and reflect on the weekend.

Please note there is no power on site. If your organisation would like to have a presence on the day, please bring your own table and contact Chris Szweda to reserve your place: [email protected]
