Adverse weather - Planning for a storm, information and useful links.
In England there are over 5 million homes and businesses at risk of flooding.
The average cost of flooding to a home is around £30,000. Flooding also brings a significant risk to life. Crucially, taking steps to prepare for flooding, and knowing what to do in a flood can significantly reduce the damages to a home and possessions (by around 40%), reduce risk to life, and reduce the likelihood of suffering from mental health impacts in the future.
Please support the Environment Agency’s campaign by reminding your residents and
businesses how to plan ahead for flooding included on the link below.
