BE FLOOD PREPARED 

Taking one simple action can help to reduce the impact of flooding.

Creating a household flood plan is a very effective and simple way to ensure that you are prepared and know what to do in the event of a flood:
• Sign up for free flood alerts and warnings – and know where to find trusted information
• Check in with relatives and neighbours, especially anyone who may find it harder to cope in a flood
• Pack an emergency kit of essential items, like bottled water and a torch and batteries – and include your insurance documents
Remember never to enter flood water, either on foot or in a vehicle. There is a lot of guidance on how to prepare for a flood, so that you can protect yourselves, the building and contents, and the land around you.
You can visit helpful websites such as:

Or for more information you can contact Councillor Bennett and Councillor Moult who attended last weeks Osmo Flood Barrier demonstration, for any questions you can find their emails on the parish website.

Or contact Whitwick Parish Council to find out more information on how you can help the village by becoming a volunteer flood warden for your area.
