Project summary

Edit project overview to modify the project summary.


The creation of six SuDS in the Salmons’ Brook Catchment will improve the water quality in the Salmons’ Brook and tributaries, along with biodiversity and amenity value of the sites. The physical creation will be just one success - we hope that this SuDS project will increase knowledge of the role of SuDS and create a wider debate within East London.
