Subregions To present the conclusions of our work in a concise and accessible way, we have divided Wales into 6 subregions (see Figure 1 below). We have selected subregions with broadly similar geological attributes relevant to the safety of a GDF, although there is still considerable variability in each subregion. The boundaries between subregions may locally coincide with the extent of a particular Rock Type of Interest, or may correspond to discrete features such as faults.

  • Clwyd Flood Risk Management Strategy
    Managing the risk of tidal flooding The tidal Clwyd Flood Risk Management Strategy is now complete What is the tidal Clwyd Flood Risk Manag ement Strategy? A flood risk management strategy is a 100 year plan that sets out how we should adapt, improve and generally prepare an area for dealing with flooding in the short term, medium term and long ter m. The tidal Clwyd strategy covers the north Wales coastline and inland tidal area between Abergele and the Denbighshire-Flintshire border near Prestatyn. It covers the main centres of population around Rhyl, Kinmel Bay and Prestatyn. In addition to the permanent residents living in the strategy area, many thousands of people visit the area each year, including holidaymakers at local caravan parks. The tidal Clwyd strategy recommends a solution to tackle both tidal flooding from the river and coastal flooding from the sea. The strategy will be reviewed regularly during its lifetime to take account of any changes that happen over time. What does the Strategy say? Our overarching strategy is that all properties in this area should be protected to their current standard or better, through a combination of improvements to existing flood defences in the short term, and by realigning embankments in the medium to long term to make space for water. The existing coastal defences will be maintained and improved in future as necessary. The strategy These ke y principles form the basis of our strategy for managing flood risk. A combin ation of technical work, environmental assessment and consultation with stakeholders and loca l people helped us decide on the best short, medium and long term solutions.

We’re honoured to be a Christian presence in every community, to walk with people on the journey of life and to offer prayers to mark together the milestones of life.
