On The Edge

Following the award-winning Beavers Without Borders, The European Nature Trust has collaborated once again with Beaver Trust and multi-award-winning filmmaker, Nina Constable, on a brand new documentary about making space for rivers in England.

In On The Edge, we’re looking at the bigger picture. Science communicator, Sophie Pavelle, embarks on a new journey to explore the concept of ‘river buffers’ – a measure that may restore our failing rivers back to health. Meeting experts and key voices in this vital discussion, key questions are addressed: what are river buffers? What shapes do they take? How might they help? And what are the challenges to overcome in implementing them across the country?

Below, you can watch a live screening of the film with the creators Sophie Pavelle and Nina Constable (film starts at 8:20).
