Dozens of members of the Women's Institute (WI) have begun testing a river's water as part of a long-term project to improve its biodiversity.

Three groups at Amble, Warkworth and Rothbury in Northumberland are part of the Coquet River Action Group (Crag), a new partnership of community groups which want to protect the river catchment.

They have begun testing at 30 sites along the river to produce a database of information about the river's health.
