Low water level in the River Wye

Anna King

Available for over a year

Most of us have been making the most of the warm weather this summer by getting out and about doing outdoor activities. Stand up paddleboarding, wild swimming and canoeing come to mind - but how are water levels affecting it? Because of the heat, water in the River Wye is 31% of what it should be, and that means canoeing can be slightly trickier than usual. The Environment Agency says it's continuing to monitor the situation. BBC Radio Gloucestershire's Sofia Hartwell went to meet people by the water.
