Going Dutch to look at Selsey's coastal defences
Findings from a Manhood Going Dutch II workshop will be presented at a public community event on Tuesday.
The workshop, to be run by the Manhood Peninsula Partnership from Sunday to Tuesday, is designed to bring international experts and local people together to look at ways of dealing with local coastal defence issues.
It is scheduled to coincide with the consultation period for the draft coastal defence strategy prepared by the Environment Agency and Chichester and Arun District Councils.
Partnership chairman Cllr Peter Jones said the community was invited to make suggestions on how to manage the coastline, and numerous responses had been received.
"These suggestions, along with the options stated in the draft strategy, will be assessed by our Dutch and British delegates over three days," he added.
"The experts' findings will be presented at Earnley Concourse on June 24, and the Manhood community are invited to attend to hear what our delegates have concluded. It looks to be an interesting and important event."
Spaces for the final presentation are limited and entrance to the event will be by ticket only.
