I don't know if many of you are aware of this but the wild trout trust is running a project called

"trout in the town"

Trout in the Town is a new WTT initiative funded by the Esmée Fairbairn Foundation. Its objectives are to improve the quality of river habitat in urban areas for the benefit of trout and wider biodiversity, and to raise awareness of wild trout as a totem species for clean water and living rivers. This will be achieved through the formation of local community groups who will adopt their local urban stream. As a result, conservation action groups, angling clubs, schools and all interested parties can come together to champion these urban wildlife corridors. Reconnecting communities with the streams of their towns and cities will bring reciprocal sociological benefits. There’s no better biology classroom than the natural world and there’s no better way to strengthen communities than to be united in a common cause. It’s a chance to do something wonderful and have it given back plus interest.
