About us
Who we are
The Essex and Suffolk Rivers Trust (ESRT) is an environmental charity set up in 2013 dedicated to improving and protecting rivers in Essex and Suffolk, making them a better place for people and wildlife. We are one of more than 60 local rivers trusts that sits under the umbrella of the national Rivers Trust - although legally we are an independent organisation. We are the only group of environmental charities in the UK and Ireland dedicated to protecting and improving river environments for the benefit of people and wildlife.
