Keeping Our Rivers Flowing Summit 2022: Integrating River and Landscape

Thursday 12 May, NAEC Stoneleigh Park, Warwickshire.

With environmental land management sitting at the heart of future agricultural reform in England, this Summit will look at how flood storage and natural flood management can combine with the maintenance of our rivers to reduce the risk of flooding.

At the Summit we hope to hear from Defra about how the Government’s new Environmental Land Management (ELM) schemes can contribute to enhancing our rivers and streams to reduce the risk of flooding, and from practitioners presenting evidence on how flood water can be effectively stored within the landscape and conveyed by our rivers.
