The Environment Agency is leading the Fens 2100+ programme, working with farmers, land managers, water companies, internal drainage boards and other partners to develop a long-term plan for managing future flood risk in the Fens.

It aims to publish its Case for Change document in autumn 2025. This is in line its measure in the Flood and Coastal Erosion Risk Management Strategy for England (2020) and will set out a strategic case for continued and enhanced investment in flood risk management to ensure we have a vibrant and sustainable future Fens.
