Abstract
Formed in the autumn of 2013, Kelvin Biodiversity Network (KBN) focuses on the biodiversity of, and issues facing the lower River Kelvin, which is essentially the stretch of the waterway flowing through the city of Glasgow, Scotland. The network reaches about 30 organisations, mainly non-governmental organisations (NGOs). We describe KBN’s activities involving member groups working together, specifically on a conference, regular bio-recording and an annual exhibition, and discuss its achievements (especially in citizen science), limitations and possible futures.
