Flood Warning

Listen out for warnings on radio and TV and phone the Environment Agency Floodline on 0845 988 1188 for more information.
Move pets, vehicles, valuables and other items to safety.
Alert your neighbours, particularly the elderly.
Put sandbags or flood boards in place - but make sure your property is ventilated. Plug sinks/baths.
Be ready to turn off gas and electricity (get help if needed). Unplug electrical items and move them upstairs if possible.
Co-operate with emergency services and local authorities - you may be evacuated to a rest centre.
Do as much as you can in daylight. Doing anything in the dark will be a lot harder, especially if the electricity fails.
