The River Teifi is dying
Sewage and chemicals are polluting our river and no one is stopping it.
The Teifi has been the lifeblood of our area for centuries - it is madness that this desecration has been permitted to happen.
Two local newspapers reported on our first meeting on 25 August and explains some of the problems and challenges. Read them here:
Teifi Water Quality * & Desecration of River Teifi
Our second meeting on 29 September was attended by over 100 people. Presentations were made by: Ceredigion CC, West Wales Rivers Trust and Welsh Water. These are available on the REPORTS page
More information can be found on the RESOURCES and NEWS pages.
We now have a Forum to enable us to communicate and comment online (note this is a link through to a separate website)
* There is an error in the article desribing Welsh Water as the government agency responsible for water management - Welsh Water is the only Not for Profit Water compaany in the UK.
