[Kate Osborne @KateOsborneMP]

Solidarity to @unisontheunion Environment Agency workers on strike today, incl in Newcastle.

EA pay has been seriously eroded after years of below-inflation pay rises, members are taking action to secure a decent pay rise which keeps pace with the cost of living.

I'm delighted that the final evaluation of the Natural Flood Management programme (the £15 million Defra funded programme which I managed) has just been published.

I won't spoil it all, but it shows that NFM is best delivered in partnership with others!

I’m honoured to be part of the @USACEHQ EWN Podcast, hosted by @decisionpartner. Julie Foley and I talked about @EnvAgency has learnt about #NFM in the UK and how we do more #NFM part of the #FCERMStrategy.

[Decision • Partners @decisionpartner]

1 in 6 people in England are at risk from flooding. In E9 of the EWN Podcast I’m joined by @ToddSBridges, USACE; and Julie Foley and @JonHollis, of England’s @EnvAgency to discuss efforts to create a more resilient nation ready for climate change. https://t.co/oFBCD5cgXv

[Prospect_NE @prospect_NE]

Tired, burnt-out, struggling to pay the bills, 2nd job, morale at rock bottom. @NaturalEngland staff not in a good place going into 2022. Years of poor pay, real terms cuts for many, no pay progression, not recognised compared to other environmental professionals 😠😞👇

[Jon Hollis @jonhollis]

@EnvAgency I'm really proud to be able to share learning from the programme I've managed for the last 5 years. There will be more to share in the fullness of time, but its clear that nature-based solutions are an important tool as we tackle climate change.

[Environment Agency @EnvAgency]

We’ve invested £15M to the Natural Flood Management programme. The programme highlights the benefits of using nature-based solutions to increase flood resilience 💧

[Jon Hollis @jonhollis]

@WoodlandTrust I love seeing nature-based solutions being used to reduce flood risk and improve the environment (as well as all the other great things they do too!)

[Jon Hollis @jonhollis]

@EnvAgencyMids @looknorthBBC @LincsFM Really good to see this NFM project in construction. The learning from it will really help other communities in the future.
