If you're a resident or business in Leicestershire, you can talk to key agencies including the Environment Agency and Leicestershire County Council, in its capacity of Lead Local Flood Authority (LLFA) and Highway Authority, about your experiences with flooding and get the latest updates on flood-related work.
You'll also be able to get advice on how to be prepared against further flooding, as well as having the opportunity to visit the FloodPod – a trailer packed with real life property flood resilience (PFR) measures. At the FloodPod, you can see and learn about solutions available that are designed specifically to protect your homes and businesses from flooding.
