News & Events

This conference focusses on the social economic and environmental benefits good schemes can bring and will be of interest to people from across the spectrum of coastal management.

We will explore good practice case studies of both hard and soft coastal engineering from the North West and elsewhere. We will also look at how coastal management decisions can be aided by development of a strong evidence base and the interface between coastline management and planning.

The conference, organised with the help of North West and North Wales Coastal Group and sponsored by Birse Coastal, will include an opportunity to visit the multi-award winning coastal defence scheme at Cleveleys on the afternoon of the second day.
