Flooding is one of the most significant risks facing communities across England, and Calderdale is no exception. With changing weather patterns and more frequent heavy rainfall, being prepared has never been more important. One of the simplest and most effective steps you can take is to sign up for free flood warnings – and it only takes two minutes.
Almost 6.2 million people in England are at risk of flooding. Even if you don’t live right next to a river, you could still be affected by surface water flooding, which is one of the most common types of flood risk in Calderdale. Flooding can cause serious disruption, damage homes, and put lives at risk. But early warnings give you the chance to act before it’s too late.
The Environment Agency’s flood warning service provides vital alerts to people at risk of river flooding. These alerts are sent by phone, text, or email and give you crucial time to protect what matters most – whether that’s moving valuables upstairs, preparing a flood plan, or ensuring your family’s safety.
• Stay informed: Receive real-time alerts when flooding is expected in your area.
• Act early: Warnings give you time to prepare and reduce the impact of flooding.
• Peace of mind: Know you’ll be notified if conditions change.
Signing up is quick, easy, and completely free. In fact, you can do it while waiting for your morning tea to brew!
