A £1.72m chalk river restoration project has been completed after two years of work which is set to enhance local wildlife.

Herts and Middlesex Wildlife Trust was awarded money from the government's Species Survival Fund early in 2024 for its Chalk Rivers project.

Hundreds of volunteers helped restore chalk rivers in Hertfordshire which support species like the endangered water vole, brown trout - and kingfishers.
