Discover how Meristem Design's Climate Resilient Schools project in London is reducing surface water flood risk and promoting resilience through the implementation of innovative SuDS planters. The Climate Resilient Schools project undertaken in partnership with the Greater London Authority, the Department for Education, and Thames Water, represents a significant step towards building a climate-resilient future. Learn about the benefits of nature-inspired design, sustainable drainage systems, and the educational opportunities they bring.
Rolling out more Rain Gardens in Waltham Forest
With the autumn planting season drawing to a close, we've worked with the Borough of Waltham Forest to help complete another phase of rain gardens. Consisting of over 110m2 of SUDs, as well as tree pits and planters, we've added further locations to their Coppermill scheme to boost its effectiveness, as well as working on new schemes.
Delivering Suds Planters to 100 of London’s Most Flood Prone Schools
We were awarded the Climate Resilient Schools contract by the Greater London Authority (GLA) to design, build and install approximately 800 planters across London's most flood prone schools.
Meristem's Rain Garden SuDS planters (also known as gutter or stormwater planters) are a sustainable flash flood and stormwater management solution with an internal water reservoir and slow release drainage system.
