Work to restore wetland, grassland and river habitats on the River Trent has begun.

The £161,000 project is focussing on a 1.1m (1.8km) stretch of the river near Weston in Staffordshire.

Trent Rivers Trust said it would improve important spaces for wildlife and also reconnect the river to its floodplain, creating additional storage for flood water.
