MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD ON JUNE 28TH 2025
Join us on Saturday 28 June 10.45am to 2.00pm at Burnell Ave Green Space KT2 5RA to tell the Government that we reject TDRA because it is environmentally damaging and there are much better alternatives.
Assemble 10.45 on land and on the river – bring your messages and banners for an 11.00am Show of Hands for the media, followed by short speeches, Q&A from SOLAR experts on the scheme details, and find out how you can show your opposition.
Save Our Lands and River (SOLAR) is a community campaign group, focused on stopping Thames Water's TDRA* scheme, which will:
- Abstract (remove) millions of litres of water from the River Thames above Teddington Weir
- Pump millions of litres of treated sewage into the River Thames above Teddington Weir
- Construct new treatment works on the storm tanks at Mogden Sewage Treatment works. Use the Mogden site to remove all of the spoil from construction of the 4km treated sewage tunnel.
- Construct a 4km, 3.5m tunnel under the streets of Isleworth, Twickenham, Teddington, Ham and Kingston
- Construct large treated sewage discharge and water abstraction structures above Teddington Weir on Richmond / North Kingston Riverside Metropolitan Open Land / Thames Path National Trail

Support The Campaign!
We are a team of volunteers, giving our own time to stop Thames Water's TDRA. But we need extra support to fight the campaign. And Thames Water has deep pockets.
We are fundraising to help organise our campaign as well as hire scientific and legal experts to support our position.
