Living Labs let students apply their research skills to NFM topics, exploring tree cover to community wellbeing, revealing overlooked insights for Ousewem and wider flood risk management.

Ousewem has launched a new riverside project in York, designed to help people understand how rivers, landscapes and community action are shaping a more climate-resilient future.

As projects pick up pace, our sites don’t just hold water and slow flows. They show what’s possible when local knowledge, technical support and natural processes come together.
