ACHIEVEMENT AND PERFORMANCE 2023-2024 PROJECTS AND ACHIEVEMENTS

Chairmans Report

Once again the Trust has shown what can be achieved by a small and focussed team of dedicated individuals. We have carried out a range of projects and identified a number more that we will look to tackle in coming years, all this despite one of the wettest winters on record. A big thank you to Alan Mullinger and Matthew Arnold once again for their continued hard work and dedication to the Trust.

Whilst our efforts have been focussed on the Hull Headwaters where we continue to be the major delivery partner, we have also maintained a key role in the West Wolds Project as well as opening discussions with the EA and others with a view to broadening our projects in coming years.

We have built on our links with the Dalton Estate by completing Phase 2 of the Scorborough Beck Project with Phase 3 now in the planning stage. Working with the Friends of Millennium Green we have revisited a project to restore and protect a small pond on the site that has a high biodiversity value but had been neglected. These smaller projects allowed us to keep busy whilst the water levels across other parts of the catchment were at record levels!

Our ongoing work as part of the West Wolds Slowing the Flow project has now moved to the delivery phase after a couple of years of planning and scoping. We have installed several NFM measures at sites on Drewton Beck and Ings Beck with a larger meandering project on Ings Beck planned for 2024. Funding permitting this work will continue over the next three years.

We have started 2024 with the great news that we have been awarded funding through The Rivers Trust Development Fund. This funding will allow us to take on a project officer for the next year which will help us to identify and deliver a range of new projects across the region.

Finally, I would like to say a big thank you to Alan Mullinger as he steps down from an active role with the Trust. Alan has been the driving force behind the Trust since its inception and we would not be here today without his passion and dedication to both the Trust and the waters and environment of the East Yorkshire region. The Trust owes Alan a great deal of thanks and he will be sorely missed.

Thank you Alan.

Yorkshire Derwent Catchment Partnership Group and Projects

The catchment partnership continues to work on the Doing More for the Derwent Project, alongside other work. The Trust has continued to keep a watching brief over the past year due to time constraints and our workload on the Hull.

Away from the partnership we have held site meetings with the Environment Agency on Scalby Beck to look at easement projects on the numerous barriers along its length. Subject to funding we hope to be make some inroads on the system this year.

We had a very productive day with the EA, Yorkshire Water and Neil Trudgill from the Rivers Trust to look at barrier easements and other opportunities on the River Rye and Pickering Beck. Again, we are waiting for potential funding to explore these options further.

We remain a partner of the Ryevitalise Project, and Paul has attended several meetings for the Trust, as well as continuing to train some of their staff and volunteers through the Institute of Fisheries Management. Paul has been asked to host a fisheries education workshop in June as part of their school's project.

EYRT Report on Aquatic Invertebrates for 2023 & early 2024

Invertebrate Sampling 2023

Page 2

EAST YORKSHIRE RIVERS TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

I am pleased to say that we had no reports of the kick samples falling below the AMI target levels on the becks in our area during 2023. Sampling was carried out by EYRT volunteers on the Dove below Keldholme, The Seven above Sinnington, Foston Beck & Driffield Beck. All rivers had healthy invertebrate populations with good numbers & species diversity.

It was particularly encouraging to see the rare stonefly, Rhabdiopteryx acuminata nymphs in both Foston Beck, where it is regularly found & in Driffield Beck where it is only very occasionally found. Blue-winged olives, Serratella ignita, were also very abundant in Foston beck and on the R. Seven, but less so in Driffield Beck. They are very susceptible to high phosphate and siltation. Agapetus fuscipes, micro-caddis were once again only found in relatively low numbers in Driffield Beck, nearly certainly a reflection of the low flows, the larvae only being abundant in the faster, shallow riffles. Of interest was the establishment of a good population of the big mayfly, Ephemera danica, in the Driffield Anglers' water above Bradshaw's Mill. There has always been a very sparse population of Ephemera vulgata in the headwaters of Driffield Beck, although they are much more abundant lower down the Hull catchment as their nymphs like muddy silt, whilst E. danica nymphs prefer gravelly silt. It seems probable that E. danica migrated from the Derwent catchment where they are abundant in most of the rivers.

Sampling over the late autumn, winter and this spring (2024) had been impossible due to high water levels, but hopefully will get into full swing soon. Fortunately the March sampling on the R. Seven sites coincided with water levels that were just low enough to facilitate sampling. Also Foston Beck was still low enough to sample and fortunately the ingress of raw sewage from Kilham over the winter months does not seem to have harmed the invertebrates lower down the beck at Harpham and Lowthorpe.

On a brighter note, after trainings that I have supervised at Helmsley National Parks Centre, Ryvitalise samplers have started sampling an increasing number of sites on the upper Rye catchment. Also, after a couple of introductory aquatic invertebrate sessions carried out by me on behalf of the YWT in conjunction with John Trail it is hoped that a group of Yorkshire Wild Life Trust volunteers will start sampling some of the minor chalk streams flowing off the north, west and south of the wolds. I have offered to give them official Riverfly Partnership training if they wish and any other help that they need if required.

I have also once again given help to a group of Hull University students studying the invertebrates and water chemistry of Driffield Beck as a part of their studies.

With regard to the aquatic vertebrates in our rivers, of great concern is the insidious decline of grayling and wild trout numbers in Driffield Beck and the catastrophic decline in wild trout numbers seen in Foston Beck in 2023. Grayling have virtually disappeared from Driffield Beck, with only a tiny number of mainly very large fish left, yet in the 1960s many thousands were removed every year to reduce the huge numbers. This decline would appear to be due to heavy cormorant predation. The only part of the river with a higher population of grayling of all year classes if the 400m length of river just below Bradshaw's Mill where human activity keeps the cormorants away.

River Hull Catchment Projects

River Improvement projects were undertaken on various rivers & streams in this chalk fed catchment.

Foston Beck - Millhouse

The Trust continued to improve this formally ponded section of the lower Foston Beck.

Page 3

EAST YORKSHIRE RIVERS TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

The Large Woody Debris (LWD) placed in the stream in autumn 2023 has survived the very high winter flows. The narrowing of this section has been successful in creating scour and helped in the removal of vast amounts of sediment.

Once the flows return to more normal levels we will be able to make a proper assessment of the stream.

Foston Beck - Harpham

A feasibility study was made into the confluence of a minor chalk stream (Lingholmes drain) and the main Foston Beck. The aim of this project was to improve an area of about 1 acre of land that has been historically difficult to farm due to constant wet conditions. Negotiations were started between the tenant and his agents in an effort to match the new farm payment system with our aspirations for this area. The Tenant was hoping to increase his margins both in this area and along a 500 metre stretch of the Foston Beck.

The Trust had gained an Environmental Permit Consent to undertake further work on the stream. Due to the effects of the prolonged flooded conditions this work was limited to removal of dislodged timber and reparation of damage caused by a weed cutting operation. Large willow trees that had blown over were removed and used to improve the habitat of this straightened section of the stream.

Scorborough Beck

The project on this small stream started last year with the clearance of the under story of scrub and saplings being cleared from the stream margins.

Following a meeting during the summer of 2023 with the Dalton Land agent it was agreed that we undertake more 'skylighting' of the stream by removing some large dead and damaged trees from the margin of the stream.

This work started in February 2024 following the close of the shooting season.

The work was undertaken after the wood and stream had been subject to prolonged flooding. The contractors managed to complete the work using winches and modified tractors. The timber was recovered by the estate with some being used to offset the Arborists costs.

Following this work, we undertook a walkover survey of the stream above the wood. The Land agent was present and indicated that he was keen to continue what we had started in making general improvements to this small watercourse.

West Wolds Slowing the Flow Project

The West Wolds Slowing the Flow Project has moved on at pace over the past year. They now have weather stations at several locations across their work area as well as fixed cameras at two points to show water levels.

Following scoping we have worked with Bill and the local landowners to undertake site clearance and stream improvements at sites on Drewton Beck at Williams Den and Ings Beck at Pratt Wood. The material cleared was returned to the stream in several locations to create leaky dams and other NFM interventions.

An extended business case is now been submitted to the EA to secure funding for three further years. This will allow the project to undertake some of the larger improvements that are planned, including a small re-meander at Pratt Wood.

Working with the Trust and the Freshwater Biological Association the project is planning to train locals to undertake invertebrate and habitat assessment surveys across the catchment.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

Reserves policy

Reserves now stand at £56,708 (2023 £66,765) and are being held for the future work on projects. The Trustees' policy is to continue to hold reserves to enable it to continue it's charitable activities.

The Trustees report a deficit for the year of £10,057 (2023 surplus of £20,728).

FUTURE PLANS

As we have now secured funding for a project officer we will be able to explore new and emerging project opportunities. We would like to become more engaged in the Derwent catchment and to look at projects away from the rivers that we have traditionally covered.

To ensure the long-term viability of the project officer we will need to secure adequate funding from 2024/25. The Rivers Trust will offer their support but we will need to find projects that will also support our plans. This may need us to broaden our area of interest.

We will attend more events and increase our exposure to new audiences as well as having a greater presence on social media.

We will continue to work with existing and new partners to bring the River Hull Headwaters and the River Derwent SSSIs into favourable condition and work towards fulfilling the provisions of the EU Water Framework Directive.

We will work closely with the Environment Agency, Natural England & Yorkshire Water on further actions planned to improve the aquatic habitat including fish passage on the Hull, Derwent and Rye, with a particular focus on barriers on the 'main river' and tributaries.

At the same time working towards the aims and issues identified in the Catchment Restoration Plans.

As active partners within the catchments of the Hull & Derwent, we will work with these groups to minimise the effects of pollution from farm and domestic surface runoff. We will continue to support and encourage good farming practice that promotes the enhancement of the aquatic environment.

We will continue to work with local education establishments to promote educational links and provide opportunities to improve understanding of the effects of ongoing restoration activities.

We will attend local and regional shows as part of our educational role and to increase our membership and public awareness.

We will continue to promote the Catchment Based Approach on the Hull & Derwent catchments working with our partners to improve the aquatic, urban & rural environments to increase public awareness of these delicate and rare environments.

EAST YORKSHIRE RIVERS TRUST

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2024

STRUCTURE, GOVERNANCE AND MANAGEMENT

The Trust was formed with the incorporation, on the 4th February 2006, as a Company Limited by Guarantee. The Trust gained charitable status on the 3rd July 2006. On the 8th October 2012 the East Yorkshire Chalk Rivers Trust, having changed its name, is now incorporated under the name of the East Yorkshire Rivers Trust.

The East Yorkshire Rivers Trust was set up to promote good practice in the conservation and improvement to the habitats of the chalk fed rivers, also the wetlands and waterbodies of East and North Yorkshire.

The Trust had enlarged its area of operation to include the catchment of the River Derwent.

This catchment joins the river Ouse near Selby and its tributaries drain a large area of north Yorkshire including north Yorkshire Moors National Park and the Howardian Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This is Yorkshires largest catchment totalling 2000km².

The lower River Derwent is designated a SSSI & SAC.

The project work is undertaken by the original Trustees, appointed Contractors and volunteers.

We rely on our expertise and that of The Rivers Trust. Its role as an umbrella organisation is to promote the development of the movement. Building capacity to deliver the Trust's objectives through regional and local Trusts which include environmental improvements across the UK.

We will work closely with our other partners, local and regional Councils, where we are members of the Waterways Partnership, Catchment Sensitive Farming Advisory Group, Natural England, Yorkshire Wildlife Trust, North York Moors National Park, Forestry Commission, and the Environment Agency.
