A Masters by Research (MRes) project at Durham University commissioned by the project has identified the most important locations and techniques for reducing peak flow, and is now carrying out subsoiling, implementing targeted tree planting and creating leaky dams. The project is also one of the Cumbria Flood Partnership pilot catchments. There has been a positive approach to self-help with individual property resilience measures installed and a community flood warden scheme now in place. The local community has been flooded 3 times. In 2005 and 2013 many houses were catastrophically flooded, with the property repairs taking over a year in several cases and some residents forced out of their homes. Working with Durham University this project has implemented various Natural Flood Management (NFM) measures to help reduce flood risk. To date this includes: • soil aeration/subsoiling across 156 acres (63.1ha) • installation of 25 leaky dams Local residents have installed property level resilience measures, which alongside these NFM measures, helps to make their properties more resilient to flooding.
