Let's talk about cliffs in BCP.

South West Flood and Coastal (hosted by BCP Council) are working to develop a Cliff Management Strategy for the coastal frontage from Chewton Bunny (Highcliffe) to Rockley (in Poole Harbour).

A key part of this wider strategy will be the creation of a Cliff Management Guide. The guide created will explain the various roles and responsibilities of those who live, work and enjoy the cliffs in the local area, explain what to do in the case of a landslide or cliff instability and inform the community on steps to mitigate erosion of the cliffs.

In the first instance we are asking local stakeholders, landowners, householders, residents and members of the community to get involved and tell us about your understanding of coastal erosion risk and instability along the BCP Coast.

  • Help Shape the Cliff Management Guide


    We are developing a Cliff Management  Guide to support residents and businesses across the BCP area. This guide will include essential information such as:

    • The causes of coastal erosion and cliff instability
    • Key contacts for advice and support
    • Where to find up-to-date information and resources


    To ensure the guide is as useful and relevant as possible, we’d like to understand your current level of knowledge about the cliffs in the BCP area, and what information you feel should be included.

    By completing this survey, you’ll be helping us create a guide to meet the needs of the community.

    Thank you for your time and input.

    This survey will close on  Sunday 13th July 2025.
