CIHT East Midlands is delighted to host this webinar with Inspire Design and Development Ltd's Managing Director, Lee Barnes, an expert on SuDS and delivering Biodiversity Net Gain.
The National Planning Policy Framework states that planning policies and decisions should contribute to, and enhance the natural and local environment. They are to do this by minimising impacts on and providing net gains for biodiversity, including by establishing coherent ecological networks that are more resilient to current and future pressures. A minimum 10% gain is said to be required.
The multiple benefits of well-designed landscape-based SuDS have been recognised within the industry for some time now. We will tell you how to maximise the available space within your development to provide multiple benefits and contribute towards the 10% netgain target alongside exploring adoption options.
The aim of this webinar is not only to educate, but also to bring together professionals from the sector who understand the importance of networking and growing their connections in a relaxed, non-sales atmosphere with like-minded people.
Development professionals particularly those involved with large scale developments. Local authorities, architects, transport planners, landscape architects and engineers and anyone with an interest in biodiversity.
