The River Restoration Centre services

The River Restoration Centre offers technical advice and information on specific projects as well as general river restoration related advice. Queries on all aspects of river management are dealt with through the Centre staff and our network of Advisors who have a wealth of practical experience in river engineering, hydrology, geomorphology, ecology and river management. If we can`t answer your query then we`ll give you the contact details for someone that can through our referral service which incorporates a catalogue of practitioners, product suppliers and specialist consultants.

Specific project advice often can`t be given over the phone as every river is unique. A site visit may be necessary which can be agreed by discounted services to organisation, individual and student members or as part of a service level agreement between Corporate members and the Centre. We are a not-for-profit organisation therefore charges for additional time and services over and above your membership benefits are charged solely to cover our costs and keep the Centre here for you. Where budgets can`t stretch to site visits RRC can provide more general written comments on river restoration and enhancement proposals if provided with detailed project information, although this is less beneficial.
