Impacts of winter 2015/16 flooding in and around Ballater and in the Garioch: overview of findings from Project Year 1

The purpose of the Assessing the Impacts of Flooding project is to better understand the impacts of flooding upon people and communities and to consider what types of support and advice are needed at different stages of a long term recovery.  Over a 36 month period, the project will advance our understanding of these long term impacts, contribute to better flood risk management and make suggestions as to how personal and community resilience may be supported and enhanced.  This report provides an overview of the findings from year 1 of the study.

Working with Natural Processes: The Evidence Behind Natural Flood Management-presentations now available

Coordinated by the EA, CIWEM and SEPA, this conference launched the EA’s ‘Working with Natural Processes Evidence Base’  to help authorities develop and implement flood and coastal erosion risk management schemes which work with natural processes to reduce flood risk. It also included presentations from a range of projects that have successfully implemented NFM measures on the ground, through effective partnerships, whilst drawing on a range of funding streams.

Natural Flood Management Network launched

A new website aiming to become a sharing platform for policymakers, researchers, scientists and anyone interested in the use of landscape features to reduce flood risk has been launched today.
