Three months ago, we announced that we would be postponing Flood and Coast 2020 in the hope of being able to hold the 3-day, in-person event in December. Our hearts are full of gratitude from the support we have received from our exhibitors, sponsors, delegates, and partners in the tremendous task of transitioning an event of this scale to a new date.

It has become clear in the weeks since that we cannot guarantee that an in-person event that includes everyone in our community can be delivered successfully and safely in December.

However, we know how important it is to bring our community together this year to focus on the climate emergency, explore the biggest challenges facing the FCERM sector and prepare for COP26. Flood and Coast 2020 will therefore be launched as a series of four digital sessions linked to the themes of the conference, running from October 2020 through to April 2021. A digital ceremony for the Flood & Coast Excellence Awards 2020 will be held in December.

We will share additional details on our plans for the Flood and Coast 2020 digital sessions and how you can get involved over the coming weeks.Thank you for your understanding and support and we hope that you will join us for Flood and Coast 2020 online.

We are hopeful that Flood and Coast 2021 will not be affected and we have already confirmed the event taking place in Telford from 29th June – 1st July 2021.
