There's a new campaign to raise interest in the river Thames, and as it's literally on our doorstep, we should take advantage and explore what it has to offer.

classic boat on thamesGet boating with either a passenger boat trip or hire your own boat for a few hours to the whole day. Visit a new attraction for the day or enjoy a relaxing evening at a riverside restaurant. There is also a range of events and open days where you can find out more about different activities happening along the River Thames.

From the 29 May 2010, children will be able to download a passport and collect stickers as they visit different riverside businesses. Once they have collected three stickers or more the passport can be returned to receive a free gift and be entered in a prize draw with a massive family prize.
