The River Thames Society was formed in 1962 to conserve the river and represent all river users. Why not join and help look after the river from source to sea?

Who saw the #SwanUpping at #Wallingford on Friday? It's the annual census of the swan population along our stretch of the #Thames. The Swan Uppers weigh & measure any cygnets and check them for any signs of injury. The centuries old ceremony is now important for conservation.

5 days to go until #Paris2024 kicks off - exciting to see #TEAMGB Olympians up on top of the London Eye in South Bank!

Wishing all British athletes a wheelie good luck ahead of Paris 🇬🇧
Not only do @laurakenny31 and @jasonkenny107 collectively have 12 Olympic gold medals, but they are also the first ever duo to stand on top of the Eye 🤩

The Festival of Britain display area in the Royal Festival Hall at @southbankcentre has gone.
It included this wonderful model of the whole south bank festival site, and the story of why the RFH is there and the development of the Southbank

Dropping the pilot. A huge bulk carrier pauses opposite Gravesend on its way upriver to Tilbury, steadied by two tugs. The pilot cutter is the tiny red thing (based on an RNLI lifeboat design) coming alongside to take off the pilot…

Refurbished steps at Barnes Bridge. What happened to the cycle rail? Its absence makes a real struggle (and hazard) for cyclists crossing the Thames here @nationalrailenq @LBRUT @TfL @ThamesPathNT @MayorofLondon
