Rising near Moreton-in-Marsh and running through or past attractive villages and towns including Shipton-under-Wychwood and Charlbury, the River Evenlode sweeps in a southeast direction to join the River Thames just below Cassington.
Water is essential to our survival, and healthy rivers provide vital habitat for wildlife to flourish. Yet if you don’t have access to a nearby river, it can be easy to not fully appreciate just how special a resource it is. The ‘Everyone’s Evenlode’ project is enabling children, young people and members of the community to access, explore and enjoy their local river and its surroundings.
We are working with local schools and communities to help inspire people to connect with their local stretch of river, learn about healthy river environments and nature, and to take positive action to care for and ecologically improve the River Evenlode.

The education, access and recreation element of the project is being delivered by the Everyone’s Evenlode team.
