About this event

(60min) This session explores how SuDS can help mitigate the impacts of climate change, urbanisation, and population growth by managing surface water more sustainably. We’ll cover key design principles, showing how SuDS can reduce flood risk, improve water quality, and enhance biodiversity. Drawing inspiration from nature, we’ll also look at what we can learn from beavers—nature’s original water engineers—and how their behaviors can inform more effective and resilient drainage solutions.

Hosted by Terry Wilkinson, Specialist Design & Application Engineer (ACO)
