An Oxfordshire wildlife trust has joined a group of charities in calling for action to protect the UK’s chalk streams.

The Berkshire, Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire Wildlife Trust has joined the group of nature charities in urging the government to safeguard these rare habitats in planning reforms.

Chalk streams are characterised by their clear waters and diverse wildlife, with 85 per cent of the world's chalk streams found in England, including Letcombe Brook and Chalgrove Brook in Oxfordshire.
