Background
The susdrain SuDS Awards 2020 celebrated exceptional SuDS, and gave due recognition to a SuDS Champion who is instrumental in delivering exceptional SuDS.
The Awards provide a platform to share the best SuDS that have been implemented over the last four years, recognising high-quality planning, design, construction and maintenance of sustainable drainage. During the awards, finalists showcased the key elements of their schemes. This is a unique opportunity to get the inside track on the winning projects with in-depth case studies presented by the teams involved.
This first of two webinars showcases three of the winning projects about which the judges commented:
Pocket Parks in South East London – winner in the retrofit small scale category

Climate Innovation District – winner in the new build large scale category
- Very innovative approach in a difficult site with limited space.
- A great example of maximising opportunities and doing multi-functionality well.
- This is a pace-setting development demonstrating there is always room for SuDS.
