It's so wonderful to have this in Worcester on an iconic site in the city. It's a beautiful part of the city and is teeming with an immense quantity of flora and fauna. It's importance is on a global scale. The River Severn is the longest river in the U.K. we are so lucky to have a very rare and endangered species of fish! I have become 'hooked' during my time as a voluntary tour guide for Diglis island and fish pass. I've learnt a great deal, met fascinating people and it's played a huge part in my physical and mental well being. It's been a very difficult two years for me personally and being involved in this project has been key to my recovery from two operations and a broken foot. I've loved every minute! What an amazing cause. Incredible experience. Thank you so much to all who have been involved! We CAN make it a better place for generations to come....🤗👍🏼👌🏽💝

I just said, 'amazing, fantastic, incredible and inspiring.' To think of the Severn being unlocked after so much time is a real stress reliever. I'm all about the Wye but being it's close friend from up at Plynlimon I feel it strongly to. Good going. Mark

That is bloody awesome let's hope other river in the uk can be treated like this. And the sewage problem going on now needs to be dealt with swiftly before its too late

Fantastic Film Nina! Incredibly inspiring, informative and exciting to see all the great results that have been achieved!

Wow. I remember in the 70s hearing about the Shad migration. As a young angler, I always dreamed of catching a shad.It's fantastic to see the job you're doing. Is it possible to buy tickets to view the migration or just to view the fish passing through at any time if year? I'd happily pay good money to see that amazing view.

My children and I really enjoyed this film. We would love to come and visit the fish ladder and viewing window.

Thank you Moira, we are really looking forward to our spring and summer tours of Diglis Island, fish pass and viewing gallery. Initial dates are being finalised and will be announced through our next newsletter, then on our website and social media in March 😊🐟

This was a great film and really enjoyed it. I have been looking forward to it for a long time. But to me this is of national importance and I felt it could have been a lot longer and maybe on national television. I don't know if you approached the BBC but shame on them for not doing something on this amazing project. I plan to visit the viewing gallery as soon as possible.

Why were the weirs not removed completely,what purpose do they serve?

[@mg10056]

Weirs oxygenate the water, weir pools (the area next to the weir) provide a habitat for fish species such as Barbel and Chub. Weir pools provide a rest area for Salmon prior to leaping over the weir in the journey upstream. Weirs are good for rivers, especially during extended periods of hot weather when oxygen levels are low.
