Join The Living Brue Group for an inspiring full day focussing on the River Brue on 28th March 2026, at Glastonbury Town Hall.
This free event aims to raise awareness and foster action on critical water issues facing our local ecosystems. Attendees will enjoy a series of engaging talks covering topics such as water pollution from various sources, including sewerage and agricultural run-off, and the resulting damage to delicate ecosystems.
Experts will delve into water remediation projects, sharing innovative solutions for restoring balance to our rivers and wetlands.
The day will also explore the rich history of The River Brue, highlighting its cultural significance through legends and folklore, as well as the historic ties between Glastonbury Abbey and local water sources. Through discussions, participants will gain a deeper understanding of how human activities impact natural systems and learn practical steps for soil health improvement and river guardianship. The event promises a dynamic program with presentations running throughout the day, complemented by possible breakout sessions for in-depth conversations, interactive craft activities inspired by local artisans, and creative expressions through art and poetry.
A possible river blessing will add a spiritual dimension, honouring the life-giving essence of our waters. We're pleased to welcome representatives from key organisations who will share their expertise and ongoing initiatives.
Tea and coffee refreshments will be available for purchase. Everyone is welcome to come along, learn, and get involved in protecting our precious water resources - don't forget to secure your spot by registering for a ticket in advance (not released yet).
This event is supported by Glastonbury Town Council, this is your chance to connect with like-minded individuals and contribute to a sustainable future for our rivers and communities.
