What they offer
The River Don is an asset to South Tyneside, bringing important wellbeing benefits to local residents.
Total River Therpay aims to help our community's passion for South Tyneside's riverside, helping them engage more closely with their beautiful river and learn more about their community's heritage.
Activities include:
- Guided walks which will be fun and educational whilst encouraging physical exercise.
- Family activities, discovering the creatures which live in the River Don and green craft sessions using materials such as willow cleared / managed along the river.
- Production and exhibition of artwork inspired by our project, to encourage more people to engage with our work in South Tyneside.
- Simple but effective litter-picking and balsam bashing will enable residents to make a positive difference, enjoy the emotional benefits of working in a group and the health benefits of engaging in physical activity.
- Free training in water quality monitoring, wildlife identification and river form, (all equipment provided), encouraging them to keep a river journal to document their learning and their river using citizen science.
