Extreme Weather
The Rural Flood Resilience Partnership has published its first work plan - the plan will enable rural communities to strengthen the resilience of their homes and businesses by providing evidenced solutions to the challenges they face in the event of flooding.
The Environment Agency is warning that heavy rain and thunderstorms expected today could lead to significant surface water flooding across parts of the country.
Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs Steve Reed has announced the launch of a new Floods Resilience Taskforce to turbocharge the development of flood defences and bolster the nation’s resilience to extreme weather.
Anglian Water’s Rob Kelly, who is currently on secondment into the Norfolk Strategic Flooding Alliance as Water Management Director, explains what really happens to the water system during periods of heavy rainfall and the power a multi-agency approach can have on effective water management.
The Environment Agency’s flood resilience team is hosting a drop-in event in Guildford to help raise awareness of local flood-risk.
