SRA Annual Report 2025-26: SRA strategy and objectives
Everything the SRA does as a partnership aims to reduce the risks and impacts of flooding across Somerset. Our partners work together as the SRA to go above and beyond their usual schemes and activities and do more than they could individually.
Our partnership’s guiding principles are:
- Doing extra
- Working together
- Acting on local priorities
Schemes and activities are judged for SRA funding against the five objectives in the SRA Strategy 2024-34:
- Reduce the risks and impacts of flooding across Somerset.
- Maintain access and connections during times of flood for communities and businesses across Somerset.
- Increase the resilience of people, places and the environment to flooding, while adapting to climate change.
- Protect Somerset’s economy from the impacts of flooding, promote business confidence and encourage new opportunities.
- Conserve and enhance Somerset’s special environments (natural, built, social, cultural) for all who live and work in Somerset and visit.
