Calderdale Flood Management Scheme
An example of a flood management scheme in the UK. Understand what a flood action plan is.
The Calderdale Flood Action Plan was introduced in 2016 after the devastating Boxing Day Floods in 2015 in the Calder Valley. This GCSE Geography video describes the clean up and repair operations before describing the four main aims of the flood management plan in detail.
This is a GCSE Geography revision video supporting AQA GCSE Geography 8035 and other specifications.
