There’s much more to the Thames Estuary than a famous river. It’s one of the busiest recreation areas in the UK, used by residents and tourists. As more and more people move out to the estuary as part of the Thames Gateway development, there will be an increasing need to improve recreational facilities as people take advantage of the open space for recreation. In recognition of this the Recreation Action Group (RAG) was established in 2001.
