During A Flood

Don't underestimate the danger involved with a flood. Floodwater can be very dangerous; six inches of fast-flowing water can knock you off your feet; two feet can sweep away a car.

Visit the Environment Agency flood warning service for information and advice on how to stay safe during a flood.

The Environment Agency has also produced a leaflet giving practical advice on what to do to stay safe in a flood. The leaflet can be downloaded from the box to the right of the page.

While Herefordshire Council endeavours to provide assistance wherever possible, it is your responsibility to protect your person and property.
