Our Mission

CATCH is a community group committed to returning the River Cale to a self-sustaining ecosystem that is rich in biodiversity and to be enjoyed by all.

Pollution or Environmental Damage?

If you spot either of these on the Cale, or on any other river, please call the Environment Agency's emergency free hotline:-
0800 80 70 60 (with maybe a follow up call to CATCH if on the Cale).

You may just wish to report something going on at the river (this may even be observations or wildlife sightings), in which case either message us on this website via the email contact address or the CATCH mobile phone:

[email protected]

07597 127187

Thank you.
