The Local Flood Risk Management Strategy has an action plan that identifies a programme of work for reducing local flood risk within Cumberland. Alongside the preparation of the Strategy a number of environmental and equality impact assessments have been carried out.
This strategy was adopted on 10 November 2022 following public consultation in September 2022. As a 'living document', the strategy along with the Action Plan and supporting assessments will be updated regularly.

National Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Strategy
The strategy from the Environment Agency sets out a vision of a nation ready for, and resilient to, flooding and coastal change – today, tomorrow and to the year 2100.
We held a consultation on 9 May 2019 to 4 July 2019 to get people's views.
