Rivelin Valley Conservation Group
Promoting and protecting heritage and wildlife
NEXT EVENT: Join us on Thursday the 8th January when Bob Berzins will be talking on “Moorlands and Grouse Shooting“. Starts at 7.30 at Stephen Hill Methodist Church
Promoting and protecting heritage and wildlife
The Rivelin Valley Conservation Group (RVCG) was formed in 1991 with the aim to encourage the effective management of wildlife habitats and to reverse the decline of the nature trail. Over the years we have completed numerous projects to protect the heritage of the valley, giving new life to the trail and in turn providing an invaluable resource to the local community.

For those who saw the Rivelin all brown and muddy last Sunday it appears this was due to a burst water main.
