The Greener Delawyk scheme incorporated multifunctional SuDS features and depaving to create greener spaces for residents and wildlife to enjoy in a Council housing estate dominated by impermeable surfaces.
Incorporating approximately 270 m2 of new SuDS and enhanced green space, the scheme demonstrates how relatively small-scale interventions can deliver substantial benefits.
Southwark Council collaborated with the London Wildlife Trust to develop the scheme, together with input from local residents.
