Kier

Pictures for the People produced a film for Kier Group showcasing the Mansfield Sustainable Drainage Project (SuDS), one of the UK’s largest sustainable flood resilience programmes. Commissioned through Severn Trent’s Green Recovery initiative, the £76 million scheme uses nature-based solutions to manage surface water, reduce pressure on sewer networks, and create greener communities. The film explores the people, innovation, and environmental thinking behind the project, demonstrating how sustainable infrastructure can help towns become more resilient to flooding.

Building Resilience Through Nature-Based Solutions

The film showcases how Kier is transforming traditional approaches to drainage through the introduction of rain gardens, verge gardens, and swales designed to slow the flow of surface water. Alongside the technical engineering involved, the project demonstrates how sustainable drainage can bring wider environmental and community benefits, creating greener public spaces while helping protect communities from flooding. By combining project footage with a human-focused story, the film communicates the scale and significance of the Mansfield programme and the role of innovative infrastructure in creating more resilient places.
