Donate to the Mersey Rivers Trust
The Mersey Rivers Trust gets no government funding and is solely reliant on grants and donations. Your donation will help the Trust continue to improve water quality, create habitats and reduce flooding throughout the Mersey Basin.
Water is a very valuable resource and has many uses including washing, drinking, transport, recreation, habitats and sewage treatment. If we do not protect our waterways we will lose these services.
Help us improve the health of local rivers for the benefit of people and wildlife.
You can donate via the link above or by cheque. See the Contact page for our address. Please make cheques payable to Mersey Rivers Trust.
