Manchester National Trust Volunteers

We've been asked by the Rangers to help with a special project called Slow the Flow https://www.nationaltrust.org.uk/hardcastle-crags/features/natural-flood-management. The National Trust is working with partners including the Environment Agency and Slow the Flow Calderdale to install wide range of natural flood management interventions (NFM) in the Hardcastle Crags Estate. Many of these NFM interventions will involve using natural resources such as trees trunks and branches to create leaky dams in the streams that run through the woodland. Leaky dams reduce the speed at which water runs through the woodland into the River.
