An innovative partnership project to 'rewi … An innovative partnership project to 'rewild' Enfield's urban rivers and renaturalise the water system. The project encompasses 8 sites across the Salmons Brook and Pymmes Brook catchments, themselves part of the Lea catchment. Rivers here suffered from urban pollution, typically from road run off and misconnections. they are often heavily modified or culverted. The project aims to improve water quality, provide flood risk management, improve public spaces, increase good quality habitat and therefore promote biodiversity. Furthermore we aim to increase knowledge of the urban water cycle and how we influence it, and how we can protect our rivers.</br></br>The project is led by the London Borough of Enfield and Thames21, with assistance from Thames Water and advisory input from the Environment Agency. Funders include Defra, Thames Water, the Environment Agency and Greater London Authority.</br></br>Works to the watercourses and their catchments include the creation of wetlands, reedbeds, rain gardens and rain planters, as well as deculverting a stream through a popular park. In addition public engagement and education is key, and interpretation and access enhancements are being carried out on each site. Consulation was carried out before works, and additional project partners include many volunteers and advocates from the local community, as well as Friends groups in parks.unity, as well as Friends groups in parks. +
