David Lomas is an active member of the Wilbraham River Protection Society as well as the CamElyOuse Catchment organisation.

He will explain the complex history of this chalk stream, its relationship to the adjacent habitats and why its survival is under threat as Cambridge continues to expand.

The Little Wilbraham River is just one example of the 29 water bodies in the Cam catchment – all of which are increasingly challenged by human activity.
