Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust has partnered with More Than Insurance on a project focused on investment for flood management solutions. The programme includes the installation of green verges and attenuation ponds to reduce rain water peak flow and therefore risk of flooding.
The programme will showcase ways to address flooding triggers in Gloucester and Cheltenham at source, using a wide range of methods. Driveway de-paving, rain gardens, the installation of green verges and building of attenuation ponds to capture rain water to reduce peak flows will all form part of the work.
