As CEO of Ribble Rivers Trust, Jack leads a team of folks working to improve the River Ribble in Lancashire and all its tributaries, for both people and wildlife. He is immensely inspiring and hard working.  

Pete and Jack discuss the key threats to our rivers and their wildlife - from water quality and water flow to water temperature and river bank erosion. Jack explains how he works with farmers around the Ribble catchment to support and manage habitat on their land to improve the river, while often benefitting their business and livestock.

Jack and Pete visit a small feeder stream and chat about the resident freshwater invertebrates, revealing the importance of this high quality river habitat.
