Collaborative Flood Management for a Climate Resilient Future

The North of the UK is facing increasingly severe flood risks due to climate change, from heavy rainfall and river surges to rising seas and overwhelmed urban drainage systems. Managing these challenges requires collaboration between local councils, flood management groups, businesses and residents. 

This panel explores how communities can work together to strengthen defences, improve planning and develop resilient infrastructure while protecting homes, commercial assets  and historic sites. Expect practical insights on funding strategies, innovative technologies and coordinated approaches to ensure the North can adapt to a wetter, more unpredictable future.
