Continuing with the Smart Rural theme, CREST is excited to announce this networking and knowledge sharing event on the topic of water and the environment.
In collaboration with Shrewsbury Water Forum, we want to share what is happening in Shropshire and promote the expertise we have available here, whilst sharing best practise from further afield. It will be an opportunity for knowledge transfer between the private and public sector, academia, individuals and community groups. Attendees will get the chance to ask questions about topics that interest or affect them, and network with other delegates in this online event.
