Does your organisation have a #ClimateChange adaptation plan? Organisations are facing increasing risks to their people, assets, and services as the impacts of climate change become more visible. The ISO14090 standard provides a clear, internationally recognised framework for understanding and responding to these risks through #ClimateAdaptation.

Through a structured programme, we: - Break down ISO 14090 into practical steps - Help you identify and prioritise #ClimateRisks - Set out the actions needed to assemble an #AdaptationPlan - Build confidence in embedding adaptation into existing processes.

Did you know we played a significant role in the the design, development and implementation of the Environment Agency's new National Flood Risk Assessment system (NaFRA2)? As part of NaFRA2's implementation, the government's Flood Map for Planning service is set to be updated with the latest data available. This will provide a single picture of current and future flood risk from rivers, the sea and surface water for England. But what does this mean for Strategic Flood Risk Assessments and how can we use the data available to support clients and build #Resilience? In our latest Insight Associate Director, Joanne Chillingworth, and Principal Analyst, Edward Hartwell, discuss the role NaFRA2 will play in simplifying SFRAs, the benefits of the new system and our hopes for the future.
