Living with Water will be at community events across Hull and Haltemprice this summer talking about natural solutions that help mitigate surface water flood risk.
Hull and the East Riding of Yorkshire face the second highest flood risk in the UK, with approximately 100,000 homes at risk of flooding. At Living with Water, we’re committed to strengthening flood resilience through collaborative partnerships with the public sector, private sector, and local communities.
Our goal is to develop innovative flood management schemes that not only mitigate flood risk but also enhance the environment and improve the well-being of residents across Hull and Haltemprice.
This summer, we’re actively engaging with community groups and local events to raise awareness and discuss flood resilience strategies. Whether you’re part of a local organisation, a pub gathering, or hosting an event, we’d love to connect and share insights into our vital work.
Get in touch at enquiries@livingwithwater.co.uk to invite us to your community discussions. Join us at upcoming events, where we’ll have interactive activities and hands-on experiences to explore flood prevention.
Make the most of the summer with Living with Water.
