Today @DefraGovUK Floods Minister Emma Hardy announced reforms to flood funding and investment to protect farming communities at the ADA Flood & Water Conference #ADAConf24 in Westminster.

We are exhibiting at the @ADA_updates Flood and Water Conference at the Institution of Civil Engineers in Westminster today. Robin is there and looking forward to speaking with delegates and ADA staff. #Water #Engineering #CivilEngineering #Exhibiting #Flood

We have our annual Tydd pumping station open day on Saturday 13th September as part of @heritageopenday. The station will be open between 10am and 4pm with pump running demonstrations at 12pm and 2pm. Find us at Station Road, Tydd Gote, PE13 5RE #heritageOpendays @ADA_updates

We’re at the #LincolnshireShow today and tomorrow (18–19 June)! 🌼 Join members of the Lincolnshire @ADA_updates Drainage Boards for hands-on activities at stand CF18 near the Clock Tower.

Reports published. Subjects include King's Sedgemoor Drain bank raising, River Brue modelling, the SRA's Community Flood Action Fund, the River Barle at Simonsbath, @SomersetWT's Act to Adapt, elections @ADA_updates, and more. Want to ask a public question? Please do so by Monday

Another week and another tilting weir installed. This will not only help keep vital peat soils wet but will also aid in the supply of water to the historical duck decoy close by.

👀 Get a sneak peek into this year's #FloodandCoast 2025 programme. It's been crafted in close collaboration with our valued strategic partners - @ADA_updates , @AuthoritySuds , @CIWEMRCG , @theriverstrust & @CIWEMUDG. View the agenda now 👇 floodandcoast.com/event/3f14…

ADA welcomes further Government funding to support floods recovery and water management ada.org.uk/2025/03/ada-welco…

#BroadsIDB recently completed vital flood defence improvements at the Brograve embankment, funded by the IDB Storm Recovery & Asset Improvement Grant Scheme. This 450m @EnvAgency embankment plays a crucial role in protecting 230ha of agricultural land, the Brograve Pumping Station, and the wider drainage network. Over time, erosion and settlement had led to frequent overtopping and flooding. To restore resilience, the embankment’s crest level has been rebuilt using locally sourced material. This work reduces flood risk, safeguards infrastructure, and improves drainage efficiency—helping cut energy costs and carbon emissions at the pumping station. #DEFRA

The first of our new batch of tilting weirs installed this week by our operations team.

Government departments & arm's-length bodies need to comply with a range of requirements and standards. Our upcoming report will provide a landscape view of these requirements and identify areas of good practice & innovation across small public bodies ⤵️ nao.org.uk/work-in-progress/…

A mix of significant snowfall, ice and rain is affecting Wales and flooding is possible. 👉 Check your flood risk and sign up for flood warnings orlo.uk/WvaNh 👉 Follow @metoffice for weather updates 👉 Check your local authority’s website for advice

Are our flood management systems robust enough to cope with the increasing risks of extreme weather? We’ve launched a new inquiry into #FloodResilience in England. Find out more: committees.parliament.uk/com… #StormDarragh #StormBert

ADA & @MLC1862 discussed with @DefraGovUK #bufferstrip stewardship options for lowland watercourses maintained by #internaldrainageboards and other RMAs. Main topics included deposition of arisings and best practice for channel/bankside maintenance 👇 ada.org.uk/2024/12/ada-discu…

🌟 #FunFriday 🌟 Last week, we had the pleasure of awarding certificates and prizes 🏆 to the talented children of Thurlton Primary School for their amazing 'pumping station of the future' designs! As part of the #NortonPumpingStation project, the students visited the site to discover how #WaterManagement plays a crucial role in their region. There were so many excellent competition submissions, but the winning duo, Billy & Frankie, earned a special honour - the two new Archimedes screw pumps at Norton will be named after them at an opening ceremony in 2025! 👏

With Storm Darragh bearing down on us, take care when you're out and about over the weekend - and don't forget the NFU's adverse weather toolbox, which has lots of handy information. ☔️ nfuonline.com/updates-and-in…
