The coast is changing. It always has and it always will. Climate change is predicted to bring about a rise in sea levels, stormier seas and more frequent rainfall, all of which will affect the way that and the rate at which, our coast is changing. The North West England and North Wales Coastal Group was set up to bring together experts from organisations across the region to look at economic, social and environmental issues and suggest the best possible solutions for managing this change in a sustainable way.

You can use this website to find out more about the Coastal Group, what we do, and some of the areas of work that we focus on.


SMP2 Consultation Report

Shoreline Management Plan 2 consultation report document now online

The North West England and North Wales Coastal group held a public consultation earlier this year about how the region’s shoreline would be managed over the next 100 years. We set out proposed policies for individual areas and invited the public to comment on these.

We have written a report detailing all the consultation responses that were received and our comment on these responses. You can find the report by using the Shoreline Management Plan 2 menu above.

We are currently amending the draft SMP2 to take into consideration changes as a result of the consultation. Once finished, this will go to local Authority councillors and the Environment Agency in the Autumn to be signed off.
