Join us on Thursday 27 February from 9:00 – 10:00am for our panel discussion, Flooding and the Built Environment: How do we protect homes and residents? This month’s webinar is a panel discussion featuring Kerry Halfpenny (Calder Flood Services) , Speaker (TBC), John Mattinson (Mattinson Consulting), and Andrew Devitt (PCA). 

Climate change is impacting homes and residents, as according to the Met Office, the decade 2011 – 2020 was 9% wetter than the preceding 30 years. Our expert panellists will set out their views on how the UK construction industry should manage the changing environment and recommend actions which designers, contractors, trade bodies and government should take, to ensure the safety and security of residents and homes, now and in the future.
