As we continue to see impacts from Storm Bert, we would like to thank you for the work you do to keep your communities safe. In many areas, Storm Bert brought more than one month’s rainfall in one weekend. Nationally, nearly 70 river gauges recorded record levels, including at locations in Wessex.
After a flood
We have attached a guide to recovery actions that anyone affected can take. We would appreciate it if you could share this with your communities. This includes information on insurance and cleaning up. We would encourage you to upload this to Town & Parish Council websites and community social media pages.
Reporting Flooding
Please remind your communities to report flooding to us as soon as they can if their home or business has flooded. We understand it is a difficult time when people are affected by flooding however, we would encourage those affected to report property flooding as close to the event as possible: https://www.gov.uk/report-flood-cause
