The EcoCities project developed tools and resources to help improve understanding of where extreme weather events are likely to occur and who and what are most vulnerable to them in Greater Manchester

A community resilience to flooding project in a deprived area of Liverpool, involving a number of interventions.

This case study is about how a small village in North Yorkshire established a group to clear snow during the winter of 2010 so that people, carers, and businesses in the area could carry on their regular activities as far as possible. 

The Royal Liverpool and Broadgreen University Hospitals NHS Trust is working on climate change adaptation as part of its NHS sustainability commitments and has used Climate Just to help engage and influence staff and partners. 

New Economy, the Greater Manchester Combined Authority’s policy and research arm, embedded data from Climate Just into their bespoke local interactive mapping system ‘MappingGM’, and made this combined data available to the public. 

Staffordshire County Council has used Climate Just to identify communities with climate disadvantage and to inform its approach to community resilience in response, in partnership with a range of local organisations.

Newcastle City Council has mapped data on pluvial flood disadvantage to identify the relationship between social vulnerability and exposure to the hazard of surface water flooding.

The aim of this project was to create a GIS mapping tool that would allow partners of Leeds City Council to prepare for and respond to climate change related extreme weather, for both strategic planning and emergency responses.

This case study would be informative for those considering strategies and partnerships to reduce fuel poverty and excess winter deaths and hospital admissions locally.  

This case study outlines how Hampshire County Council initiated an assessment of social vulnerability. It will be helpful for other local authorities wishing to gain an insight into social vulnerability in their area as a means to target resources.

This case study outlines the activities that were undertaken to implement local and natural solutions to flood risks.

In November 2015, a number of representatives of voluntary and community sector organisations in Bristol participated in a workshop to discuss the impacts of climate change on the services they provide to some of Bristol’s most socially vulnerable people.

A new large housing development in York with 40% affordable homes has been designed with a range of sustainable design features, including sustainable drainage to reduce flood risk.
