A massive pat on the back to River Stour Trust’s fantastic project coordinator, John, for all his efforts and unwavering enthusiasm! 
One final hurdle before designated bathing water status is approved for the River Stour (along Friar’s Meadow at Sudbury).
There is a two week public consultation (closes on 10 March) so do send your response to get our approval rubber stamped! Remember to emphasise the excellent picnic area, proximity of town centre, car parking, bus station, rail station and toilets.
