💦 Rebel against RIVERCIDE! 💦

21st May 2022 @ 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

🐟 A protest and gathering by the river on Port Meadow. Find out more about river pollution and the tragic consequences for wildlife & ecosystems. Picnic & swim, paddle & protest!

💃🏽 Red Rebels will process through the streets of Oxford, starting at the National History Museum and arriving at the riverbank about 12.15pm, where they will be met by a flotilla of swimmers, kayakers and others.

🌍Inspired by Januarys’ impressive gathering organised by Clean Our River Thames (CORT) with #EndSewagePollution Mid-Thames Group and in celebration of the recently achieved Bathing Water Status for Wolvercote Mill Stream, we also want to mark Earth Overshoot Day

🎤🎤🎤Confirmed speakers so far include Annelise Dodds MP, Peter Fry (Oxford Mayor), local councillors and Ashley Smith (Windrush Against Sewage Pollution)
