- Additional information
- This collaborative research was funded by DEFRA to support the development and implementation of property level flood resilience measures. A co-design process with representatives from flood affected communities helped to ensure the validity of the findings. The research led to improved understanding of the range of technical measures available to help improve resilience and identified a number of key intervention points to consider implementing these measures. The findings of this research have been used by Defra in the development of new UK flood risk management policy on property flood resilience for the benefit of thousands of homeowners.
