Overview

Public perception often pins responsibility for flood events on new developments. Stuart Pedder draws on his experience in Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) planning to unpack the relationship between development and flooding, and how SuDS can support flood management in urban spaces. 

Stuart will take you through the main aspects of applying SuDS, including legal guidance, practical application, and CSO spill reduction, offering a pragmatic way forward for urban flood solutions. 

An optional lunch will be available from £6.
