Water quality workshop at the Anam Centre
Féidhlim Harty, a water management expert, will lead a free workshop on water quality.
The event, organised by the Kerry Biosphere, will take place at the Anam Cultural and Arts Centre on April 7, from 10am to 1pm.
Harty, director of FH Wetlands Systems, will discuss "nature-based solutions" for water quality. These are methods that use natural processes to address environmental issues. The workshop will focus on the Kerry Biosphere's Rainwater Planter Initiative, which aims to reduce pressure on stormwater drains.
Participants will learn about how rainwater planters work and how they can be used. Harty will also present other practical methods for improving water quality. The workshop will include a presentation, group discussions, and problem-solving activities.
The three-hour session includes a 20-minute coffee break with scones. The workshop is free due to funding from Kerry County Council and the National Parks and Wildlife Service.

Those who cannot book online can contact Brendan, the Biosphere Officer, at 087 152 7746 or kerrybiosphere@skdp.net.
