This video presents the most common means for restoring a brook for vulnerable brown trout. Besides the improved fish habitats restored brooks also stabilize floods and stormwater peaks, maintain the urban biodiversity, and provide aestethic values and recreational spaces. Restoring brooks is fun and easy and can be carried out with ordinary garden tools.

The filmed restoration workshop took place at Longinoja brooke in Helsinki, Finland. The workshop was held and the video was made as part of the Life+ funded RESTORE partnership.
