Pang Valley Flood Forum Trustees Report to 31[st] March 2023
Trustees: Kay Lacey (chairman) Piers Allison Brian Connorton Peter McGeehin David Barlow Stephen Billyeald (treasurer)
Meetings:
PVFF held two online meetings via Microsoft Teams in the 12month period (Oct 17[th] 2022 and Feb 28[th] 2023) attended by representatives from the Pang villages as well as from the three RMAs (Risk Management Authority). Actions within the Flood Risk Management Plan (FRMP) were updated at each meeting. Details of the FRMP and associated actions can be found on the PVFF website www.foodalleviation.uk
Other Activities:
Natural Flood Management (NFM)
We attended the Environment Agency’s National Flood and Coast Excellence Awards in June 2022 and were ‘highly commended’ in the Community Partnerships Award for our DEFRA Natural Flood Management Project.
In Dec 2022 we submitted an application for an NFM grant from the Thames Regional Flood and Coastal Committee (TRFCC), through West Berks Council, to do another NFM project at Redhill Copse, in partnership with the Bucklebury Estate. We were successful with the application but the project start, originally planned for Mar 2023, had to be delayed until June 2023.
In February 2023 we hosted a visit to the Englefield NFM Project from 14 visiting professors and researchers from the Prefectural University of Kumamoto, Japan.
Talks
In April 2022 the Chair gave various talks: at Tidmarsh and Pangbourne Parish Councils’ Annual Meetings, at Bembridge Parish Council’s Annual Meeting (Isle of Wight), and to the Pangbourne and Whitchurch Sustainability Group (PAWS).
The Chair took part in a number of online user research sessions on behalf of the Flood Forum with organisations such as the EA, CIRIA etc and was invited to speak to the TRFCC (NFM Subcommittee) to give an overview of the PVFF Defra NFM project.
Education
In Jun 22, for the second year running, the PVFF had a stand at the Englefield Schools Countryside Day. This is held over two days on the Englefield Estate. We talked to some
500 schoolchildren from a number of different primary schools about the risks associated with flooding, the dangers hidden in flood water and the benefits of natural flood management.
Stakeholder Groups
PVFF are also a key stakeholder in the Thames Water Pang Chalkstream Restoration Strategy Project and have attended regular monthly meetings since its inauguration in Jan 2022. In July 2022 the Chair led a Pang walkover for other stakeholders.
In June 2022 four Flood Forum members were invited to an online meeting with members of the GRACE project (Groundwater Resilience and Community Engagement - now “Project Groundwater”) to provide an overview of our work, particularly with regard to groundwater issues. We are now a key stakeholder in this project.
In Jan 2023 the Chair attended the Thames Water “Water Resources Forum” in Paddington, London.
