I visited the tiny village of Tempsford, which is poised to be the first major new town in prime minister Keir Starmer's housing masterplan. One problem? The area gets severely flooded most years... www.thetimes.com/life-style/p...

Schedule 3 of the 2010 Flood & Water Act has never been enacted. It would mean larger property developments had to include SuDS to reduce flood risk. Why, asks @floodmary.bsky.social has this simple measure to protect people's homes still not been implemented? 👇🏾 floodmary.com/2025/02/10/b...

I'm spending a lot of today giving interviews about #floodrecovery. It's great to be able to give advice, but heartbreaking that so many people have flooded. Some have only just gone back home after the last flood. It's essential that we all encourage Build Back Better to enable a quicker recovery!

I've just had a video call with a guy from rural #Herefordshire His home is all prepared for a #flood, his flood barriers are up at the doors but the best bit is that the newly built wall around his house is keeping vast amounts of flood water at bay for the 2nd time this winter!

Being #flooded during a power cut could be extremely challenging! Make sure you have a good supply of torches to hand, check your mobile phone is charged & any power packs. Move your belongings upstairs in advance if you can.

homeowners from #HEREFORDSHIRE have saved their home from flooding again by building a wall around their home. They have been flooded out of their home twice before & were displaced for 20 months. Not this time!
