The Thames is more than just a river. It’s regattas in Henley, walks along the towpath, boating through the locks, wildlife at sunrise, and communities built around the water. 

In this episode of The RG10 Podcast, we speak with Greg Wilkinson, Chairman of the Middle Thames branch of the River Thames Society, about why this part of the river matters so much and the work being done to protect it.

We also address the challenges. Flooding, sewage discharge, ageing infrastructure and concerns about river health are very real issues. But alongside those pressures, there’s energy, commitment and a growing community determined to safeguard the Thames for future generations.

This is a conversation about pride, responsibility and optimism — and about making sure the river remains at least as good for those who come after us as it is today.
