Event details

Coastal Seminar Series

Paul started working in the Drainage Section of the Council in 1985, and after a number of roles moved into his present post, largely due to consequences of the Pitt Review in March 2010. His role was tested in August 2011 when central Bournemouth experience flash floods affecting homes, businesses and tourism, resulting in a clean-up operation. In his talk, Paul will discuss what happened on the day, and the consequences of the flooding.

This talk is aimed at students, academics, recent graduates and invited professionals only.
