Your River, Your Say

Jono Coleman and JoAnne Good from BBC London 94.9FM’s Breakfast Show host a live debate about the future of the Thames – what do Londoners want for the future of their river? How do they perceive it? As a dead space, dynamic, exclusive, public, wild, a sanctuary, a place of work, a place of play? Speak to almost anyone and they will say they are passionate about the Thames, yet they have few opportunities to express their views in the public arena. Its your river! Hear the pundits and have your say!

Your River Your Say will inform the GLA’s understanding of what Londoners want for their river. It is organised by Thames Festival with London Rivers Association on behalf of the GLA’s London Waterways Commission.
