Set up in 1985 by local people who were worried about the future of the River Darent, the Darent River Preservation Society (DRiPS) is still going strong 40 years later.

Our Chairman, Stuart Merrylees, created a presentation telling the story of the river and of the society from 1985 to 2025. It was shown at the party we held to mark the anniversary.
