Forest of Bradford arranged learning and volunteering activities for Bradford and Bingley Canoe Club which leases the eroded zone. The club would acquire an appreciation of the habitat created and some skills to manage it in the future.

Here is Phil Sheridan of the River Fly Monitoring Project showing members of Bradford and Bingley Canoe Club and interested visitors how to sample river fly larvae. The tiny creatures that live on the river bed are sensitive indicators of changes to their environment and indicate pollution events. Collelct a sample, identify it and put it back.
