We convened a Council Leaders Forum of Mayors, GMs and CEOs from the 8 floodplain councils to capture expert local knowledge and the key concerns of residents.

We also established a Community Panel of residents that has met 4 times, with 2 more sessions planned for early 2025. Topics discussed so far include the concept of adaptation, the impacts of flooding, ideas for mitigation, ways to improve evacuation routes, and home insurance. In addition to these focused sessions, our team is engaging with community at a variety of events, capturing a diversity of experiences and insights to support our work.

Technical analysis of a wide range of options is ongoing. As the most suitable risk mitigation options are identified, we will be talking to community about them. Follow this page for updates.
