Strategy News and Updates

Following the public engagement at various venues in and around Lymington and Milford on Sea, we also took the Strategy’s Leading Option exhibition boards to the New Forest Show.

Environment Agency staff from across the organisation spoke to over 750 people across the 3 days. Along with information on the Strategy, agriculture, flood resilience and recruitment were among the topics covered. Visitors were attracted to the stand by the JBA Trust’s wave tank, the climate change pledge tree and the dirty water tank.

The public exhibitions have now closed, thank you to everyone that came along and gave us feedback. Drop-ins were held at 5 venues in Lymington and Milford on Sea in June and July and the Strategy Team saw and spoke to nearly 400 residents and interested parties, including Sir Desmond Swayne MP.

Feedback from the events will be collated and uploaded to the Strategy Progress page shortly.

Please find attached details of the next round of public exhibitions showcasing the proposed Leading Options, please call in to have a look, ask any questions and give us your views. Members of the Strategy Team will be on hand to ask any questions. Leading Option exhibition display materials can also be viewed here.
