About us
"The River Thames Alliance is all about reminding people that the River Thames is more than just London - it's also the green, beautiful, relaxing, vibrant and quintessentially English river that flows outside of London...together we can really promote one of England's greatest assets!"
Actor David Suchet, Chairman of the RTA and waterway enthusiast.
The award winning visitthames website was created by the Environment Agency on behalf of the River Thames Alliance. The Alliance is a partnership of public and private sector organisations set up to help manage the future of the non-tidal Thames. There are now 82 member organisations in the Alliance, which is chaired by David Suchet (better known as Hercule Poirot!)
We created this site because we want people to make the most of the River Thames. You might be a keen boater or walker already, or you might never have been near the River Thames. Whatever your background or interest, we would love you to visit the area.
With over 17,000 unique visitors a month, visitthames is a great marketing tool, so if you own a business by the river, why not promote it by joining the River Thames Alliance Marketing Partnership
