About the event

Tyne Rivers Trust at Land of Oak & Iron
Our friends from the Tyne Rivers Trust will be here today with a fantastic, interactive model of the river catchment area.

Tyne Rivers Trust said “It’s a fantastic resource to bring our catchment to life. It shows the main rivers as well as major landmarks like the Tyne Bridge and the Angel of the North so people can really see how it fits together.”

The model is interactive with water flowing in the rivers and interchangeable parts to show how we can slow the flow of water using better land management practices and natural flood management. The interchangeable sections include leaky dams, straightened vs meandering river, woodland, riparian tree planting and restored peatland, which all help the river to adapt to a changing climate.

Drop by to take a look and have a go at slowing down the river.
Free event, no booking required.
