- **Event Start and End Date**: Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Fri, 19 Jun, 2026 at 04:00 pm
- **Event Description**: Jo in the Water follows a passionate sea swimmer turned reluctant activist, Exmouth-based Jo Bateman, as she takes on one of the UK’s biggest water companies in a David-and-Goliath battle to protect our waters from devastating sewage pollution.

As Jo’s courage helps ignite a growing movement, this film exposes the dire state of our water system and asks: who will stand up for our right to swim in clean natural waters, for the species and communities that rely upon them?

Jo in the Water is a feature-length documentary made by award-winning filmmakers with a strong track record of bringing powerful stories to our cinema screens. It is not just about water pollution; it is about connection—to nature, to our own sense of place, and to our responsibility for the world around us.

Featuring Jo Bateman, Jeremy Vine, Jim Murray MBE and Chris Packham.

“Jo inspires people… they realise that together we have a greater strength. In a shoal like this we become mighty.”
Chris Packham, Wildlife TV presenter & conservationist


“As someone deeply entrenched in the fight to save our waters from pollution I’m delighted to be part of this important documentary. Jo Bateman’s story is an inspirational one and she’s a fantastic example to the younger generation who will need to battle hard for their waters. This film is a joyful celebration of grassroots activism.”

Jim Murray MBE, actor & activist angler.
