Meet the Ribble Rivers Trust team, these are the staff delivering great projects on the rivers and countryside of Ribble catchment.
The data and evidence team
Ellie Brown Strategic Evidence & GIS Manager
Ellie is a Conservation GIS professional who specialises in developing landscape-scale analyses to target works where they are likely to have the greatest benefits for wildlife, the environment and people. Ellie also leads Ribble Rivers Trust’s Data and Evidence Team.
Ellie also manages a programme of Citizen Science activities and environmental monitoring works aimed at monitoring catchment health and evaluating the success of the Trust’s projects.
Ellie joined Ribble Rivers Trust in 2015 after completing a BSc (Hons) degree in Biology and an MSc degree in Biodiversity and Conservation at the University of Leeds. Forever a nature-nerd with a lifelong passion for wildlife, it was while at university that Ellie learned to use GIS: software that can be used to map location-based environmental and species data.
A local lass, Ellie was keen to utilise GIS as a tool to make the greatest impact she could on her local environment and beyond. She was initially taken on part-time as the GIS, Data and Evidence Officer for the Trust’s Ribble Life Together project but now uses data and evidence to support most aspects of the Trust’s work, including:
Developing landscape-scale GIS tools and analyses to help direct the Trust’s works, whether that’s woodland creation, hedgerow creation/restoration, wetland creation, in-river barrier removal, Natural Flood Management, education and community engagement or further environmental monitoring and Citizen Science work. Recent projects include CaSTCo and Ecological Regeneration in Lancashire.
Some of Ellie’s analysis methodologies and decision-support tools have been rolled out nationally for others to utilise, such as the Health and Wellbeing Evidence Base. Ellie has also presented on how the Trust uses location-based data and evidence to aid decision making at national Esri and SCIMAP conferences, and she has acted as a GIS and data consultant for other local and national environmental organisations, including CEFAS, local councils, the Forest of Bowland AONB, The Rivers Trust and Yorkshire Dales Millenium Trust.
Outside of her role at Ribble Rivers Trust, Ellie is a Trustee for another environmental & community-focused charity and volunteers as a dance teacher in her village. She also loves walking, cultivating her wildlife-friendly garden, and all things nature-related.

Henry is a Clitheroe native, he grew up practically on the banks of the Ribble and has deep ties to the area. He takes great pride in the natural beauty of the surrounding country, and has many connections throughout Lancashire. When not on Ribble Trust duty, Henry is studying for a Master’s degree in Conservation Management at Edge Hill University. His thesis is creating a Habitat Suitability Model for bats in Lancashire and Yorkshire, using data he helped to collect as part of the Trust’s citizen science bat surveys in the summer of 2022. Henry has previously gained a BA (hons) in History & Politics at Queen Mary University of London, before moving back home to Lancashire to pursue his other passions of conservation, tree hugging, and peace and quiet.
Henry started working with the Trust as a citizen scientist in the summer of 2022, before joining on a university placement the following year. Since then, he has moved into a part-time surveying role over the summer of 2023, before going full-time and being made the Data & Evidence Officer at the trust, all within the year. With the Trust, Henry is training to be able to deliver terrestrial baseline surveys for Nature-Based Solutions opportunities, to help push the Trust’s capabilities even further. Some of Henry’s other responsibilities include investigating riverfly trigger level breaches and reports from the public, as well as managing the various communications channels with volunteers and citizen scientists.

Naomi Walker Community Engagement Officer
Naomi is one of our new community engagement officers and began her role in July 2024. Her day-to-day work involves engaging with local communities within the Ribble catchment, which covers a wide range of activities.
Naomi recently finished a degree in Wildlife Conservation at NTU and whilst studying was president of the university’s conservation society. This experience allowed her to explore her interest in community engagement, and she enjoyed inspiring students to get involved in nature conservation activities. These activities included mushroom forays, bird and plant ID walks, volunteer days/work parties, habitat management work, guest speakers (such as Ajay Tegala), and wildflower + tree planting.
After her studies, she felt impassioned to continue working with communities for the betterment of nature, and she is committed to the implementation of nature-based solutions to national issues. Only 15% of the riverine habitats in the UK are in good ecological health, and 1 in 6 UK homes are susceptible to flooding. It is therefore imperative that local communities can work together with charitable organisations like RRT to identify, prioritize, and manage threats in their local catchments. Naomi hopes that through her work she can bring local people out into nature and help educate them on the importance of healthy rivers and the ecosystem services they provide.
In her free time, Naomi likes hiking, swimming, camping, and climbing in the Lakes. She is also partial to spending her evenings curled up with a good book or crocheting, usually with the company of her pet hamster Huckleberry.
