Urban Flood Resilience Dissemination Events

Jun 22, 2017

 

This is a free dissemination workshop for the Urban Flood Resilience: Property Flood Resilience Database project. Three workshops will be taking place across the UK over a series of dates in September. Workshop locations include, Liverpool, Watford (England) and Ravenscraig (Scotland) – see below for dates and booking.

With 6 million UK homes already at risk of flooding, property owners facing difficulties getting adequate insurance, and property level flood resilience currently going undocumented there is a wide scope for improving on the current situation.

A collaboration between BRE, Lexis Nexis, AXA and Liverpool City Council on urban flood resilience data integration has resulted in the Property Flood Resilience Database (PFR-d); a means for quantifying property level resilience based on the building and the resilience measures taken.
