Earlier this year, Bishopstoke Parish Council awarded a grant to Wessex Rivers Trust to create a Chalk Stream Challenge for the River Itchen in the village.

 

The challenge is a fun and informative way for residents, families and visitors to discover why chalk streams are such special habitats, and what we can all do to help protect them.

 

We are pleased to announce that the Bishopstoke Chalk Stream Challenge is now ready for everyone to enjoy. It will be available on the Wessex Rivers Trust website soon, but you can get started straight away by downloading the map and supporting information using the link below.
