We are excited to be hosting ADA’s fourth annual Environment Day sponsored by Breheny on Wednesday 04 February 2026 at Park Farm, Thorney, near Peterborough.

This free in-person event aims to provide an insightful day of talks on a range of topics relevant to the management of the lowland watercourses and the freshwater environment. The day will cover everything from eels to invasive species, and beavers to landscape recovery.

ADA warmly invites those who play a role in managing, maintaining and governing safe water levels and flood risk infrastructure across our lowland water landscapes. The event aims to help provide insight and enable you to better perform your statutory environmental duties, utilise best practice approaches and enhance your local lowland environment as part of your essential work.

Our last Environment Day reached full capacity, so we encourage you to reserve your place early, with the event once again expected to attract considerable interest, particularly from lowland water managers.
