Stemming the flow - managing flood risk in existing developments

15 October 2009, Solihull (A Free LANDForm event)

The devastating flooding experienced in 2007 demonstrated the impact of flooding on people, businesses and communities. Within England and Wales over 5 million properties are at risk of flooding (one in six buildings) from the sea, rivers or surface water.

Subsequent reviews of the 2007 flooding, guidance and proposed changes to regulations suggest that flood risk in existing developments needs to be tackled. This involves addressing difficulties in communities already vulnerable to flooding and/or looking at the opportunities regeneration provides to improve the way that flooding is managed in existing developments.

This FREE event focuses on the challenges and approaches to managing flood risk in existing developments, what can be done to retrofit flood risk measures and assist with recovery at the building, development and community scales.
