Before you get in, check:
🌊 Flow – even gentle-looking rivers can have strong currents, so test it with a leaf
📏 Depth – what looks shallow can drop off suddenly
🌡️ Temperature – cold water shock is possible, even on warm days
💩 Water quality – use our sewage map for recent spills and watch for blue-green algae
Stay safe while swimming:
🚫 Don’t dive – rocks and debris can shift beneath the surface
🚤 Keep an eye out for boats – stay visible and aware
🍹 Stay sober – alcohol and drugs affect judgement and swimming ability
🚪 Plan your exit – make sure there’s an easy way out
🏊♂️ Don’t swim alone – go with a friend, or let someone know your plans
Our rivers are great places to cool off and enjoy nature, just take a moment to stay safe around the water.

Species like Atlantic salmon and European eel depend on free-flowing rivers to complete the incredible journeys essential to their life cycles, but dams and weirs block the way. 🚧
To celebrate these amazing migratory fish, we’re highlighting the work taking place across Yorkshire as part of the Great Yorkshire Rivers Partnership to help reopen our rivers by addressing the artificial barriers impacting fish populations.

The good:
• 13 new sites received designated Bathing Water status, guaranteeing a water quality testing regime 🧪
• This includes six new river bathing locations 🚣
The bad:
• Just two of the 13 designated river bathing waters were classified as sufficient or good status in 2025 ⛔️🏊️
• Bathing Water regulation reforms could automatically refuse new river bathing sites being designated, blocking them from receiving the regular testing they require to enable action towards improved water quality
Without urgent, meaningful action, increasing monitoring of river sites holds little weight. Read our full response below 👇️

But there will be no debate on the environment in Parliament, adding to long-running concerns that the environment is being disregarded in the process of reform and the government’s wider push for economic growth.

The upcoming Water Reform Bill is a once in a generation opportunity to secure real protections for our rivers, lakes, and seas, but only if it is done properly.
The early proposals are underwhelming and without stronger action, we risk years more of pollution, broken systems, and nature loss.
Visit the link in our bio to email your MP and demand a Water Reform Bill that truly delivers the changes our rivers desperately need. You can customise the message or use the template provided.
It only takes a couple of minutes, but this moment could shape the future of our waterways for years to come.

That's what the annual summary data, published today, tells us. And it paints a terrible picture, but here's the real kicker: it's far from the whole story.
Water companies aren't transparent on how they edit the data before sharing. It doesn't always match the live spill alerts that we collect in our Sewage Map year-round. Read our blog post to find out more.
