The Chalk Stream Challenge was created by two volunteers as part of the Watercress and Winterbournes Landscape Partnership Scheme. The scheme, funded by the National Lottery Heritage Fund, focuses on the headwaters of the Rivers Test and Itchen in Hampshire, and encourages children and young people to explore and learn about their local chalk stream.

The Chess Chalk Stream Challenge was adapted for The River Chess by the Chiltern Chalk Streams Project with funding from Smarter Water Catchment.
