So Jonny, as a clearly a proud Liverpoolian, tell me a little bit about the city and I guess why you are doing rainwater management in Liverpool at all.

Jonny PhillipsGUEST
Liverpool has 86% combined sewer, which is some of the highest that you'll see around the country, and that makes it imperative as to why we've got to think about managing rainwater where it lands and separating out to make a sustainable network infrastructure going forward.

Jonny PhillipsGUEST
The environment's dramatically improved since the 1980s, where it was declared ecologically dead.

Jonny PhillipsGUEST
The Meapras, which is the huge pipe that runs along the front of the Mersey, taking sewerage through to our treatment works, and that's led to now 43 species of fish being found in the Mersey, occasionally dolphins as well, which is really exciting.

Jonny PhillipsGUEST
But it's a huge step now in terms of going further, better and faster together.

What makes that difficult, and how have you actually managed to do that here in Liverpool when others have tried and often not succeeded?
