Optimising the delivery of
environmental benefits in
urban communities
Spot the connection….?

If we can broaden the offer, widen the circle of
interest we might:
• Leverage more joint action, which
• Increases potential access to funding and
aligned investment
This is especially relevant to support action in
urban environments where one of the obstacles is
multiple stakeholders and fragmented interests
“We can’t lead by vinegar; only by honey”*

Catchment Approach & NEA ES

12
Please tell us any other reasons you value the rivers in the Wear
catchment/area’.
‘Is there anything preventing you from making more use of
rivers in the Wear catchment?’.
But real people say….
13
So the connection is……..
Maslow’s hierarchy Benefit equivalence?
14
Are a bit like…….
The question of scope..
15
• Who will benefit
• Who might contribute/ who might pay?
• How are the benefits distributed now?
• How might that distribution change as a
result of :
• Our proposals?
• Other projects and proposals?
Classification of benefits is a critical consideration
for building of a convincing business case and opens
up a number of relevant questions:
Have we got the right kinds of buckets and do the ones we
have enable, or constrain progress?
So
16
What language
and approaches
to engagement
work best?
Are we able to
adequately
account for all of
the benefits that
may accrue?

Business Investment Generating Multiple Benefits

River Restoration Centre Conference 2015
Background
Flooding impact: business areas
• Lower Don Valley: Strategic economic 
importance to region
• Cost of recovery to business £millions
• Price and availability of business insurance
• Is the LDV still a place to do business??
Business Improvement Districts
• Sheffield adopted the ‘beneficiary contributes’
• BIDS ‐ traditional uses – maintenance, security, 
marketing. NOT flood schemes.
• BIDs are funded through a top up on business 
rates. Business led, business votes. 
• LDV BID: Between £90 ‐ £45,000 per annum
• Raised £1.4m
Poorly

in support of integrated water
management
http://www.ciwem.org/planningadvice
We have written an advice note to:
 Provide a one-stop-shop to demystify water
management
 Show how spatial planning can be part of
the catchment-based approach and secure
multiple benefits
 Promote partnership working
 Support the NPPF and national planning
guidance
Advice for planners
The advice note:
 Sets out the issues which planners should be
aware of
 Shows planners what is possible and the
benefits of integrating water issues into plans
 Provides examples of what can be achieved
drawn from current best practice
 Signposts other existing guidance

The Strutts Centre
• Former school
• Grade II listed
building
• Community
Centre
• Used by EA and
TRT
www.trentriverstrust.org
Initial engagement, information
gathering and generating
options
• Discussions with EA
• Designer commissioned –
Robert Bray Associates
• Topographic Survey
• SuDS Audit
Learning:
Involve landowners throughout.
Careful commissioning,
designer with proven track record
www.trentriverstrust.org
Identify options, secure
permissions, procure contractor
• Determine options to be delivered.
• Permissions – planning, listed building, 
• Detailed designs
• Land owner input and agreement to designs
• Procure contractor (Pugh‐Lewis)
Learning:
Involve the planning officer and landowner
Designer role is key
www.trentriverstrust.org
Ground work and
construction
www.trentriverstrust.org
Learning:
• Careful commissioning of contractor, checks, 
references etc.
• You also have to be lucky when working to tight 
funding deadlines – weather, contractor availability 
etc.
• Pay attention to key decision points and record them.

Planting
Many hands make light work 
Community planting day
EA planting day. 
www.trentriverstrust.org
Planting
• Carefully designed planting scheme
• Cost of plants
• Source plants
• Community involvement, partnership working
Learning:
Determine the plant budget and ongoing resource for 
maintenance as early as possible
Volunteer donations = lots of project management
From this stage, it’s a garden! You might have to do a lot of 
watering, and then weeding to keep your plants alive!

Interpretation….
Adds such a lot
ALWAYS takes longer than I think. Being 
able to do it as a follow‐on project helped.
Always get it proof read.
