The
Environment Agency and Somerset County Council and partner agencies
are working with Residents in areas at risk from flooding to develop
community flood plans. Flood plan
groups are being formed consisting of members of the community and
the Parish Council, where applicable.
Involving
local people ensures we include local knowledge and that is vital.
Groups meet at a time that suits and plan together to make the
community more resilient. A
resilient community understands its needs and plans ahead.
A flood
plan helps you become more aware of what to do in the event of a
flood, how to become more resilient and self-reliant and knowing when
to take action and what to do as a community.
This is an
opportunity for you to be involved and be part of the plan for Aller.
More
volunteers are needed from Aller and Aller Drove
Next Meeting
