Together on water

We are taking precautionary action to reduce flood risks associated with climate change.

What we are doing

Actions we are taking on water:

• Identify funding sources for drainage and waterways improvements, working in partnership with Thames Water, The Environment Agency and Port of London Authority
• Continue to support the work of the Tideway project and foster good working relationships and collaborations with external organisations to help maintain the quality of our local waterways

 What you can do

Actions you can take:

• Join riverside and embankment litter pick-up groups
• Pick up after your pet to avoid it going down the drains
• Plant a rain garden to capture run-off water

Outcomes of our actions

• Protection for waters
