A nature reserve has been described as a "win-win" in protecting homes from flooding and improving habitats for wildlife by the Water and Floods Minister, Emma Hardy.

On a visit to the the North Cave wetlands in East Yorkshire Hardy, MP for Hull West and Haltemprice, said the area was an important natural flood defence and beneficial for a variety of wildlife.

The wetlands were bought by the Yorkshire Wildlife Trust in 2000 and operates as a nature reserve alongside a working sand and gravel quarry.
