In the Event of a Flood

- Empty furniture drawers and cupboards and place whatever you can on higher ground or upstairs
- Fasten plastic bags around the legs of unmovable furniture to limit water damage
- Turn off mains gas and electricity
- Put plugs in sinks and weigh them down to prevent back flow, do the same with toilet seats
- Bring cased outdoor pets inside and move all animals upstairs if possible
- Make sure any valuable or sentimental objects are safe
Do not move through floodwater if avoidable and wash any parts of your body that come into contact with floodwater. Please try and keep in contact with neighbours and other members of the community, particularly those who may be more vulnerable.
If evacuation is required switch off all power and unplug appliances. Take a mobile phone, charger, cash and medication. Lock all doors and windows. If driving take water and blankets and keep tuned into local radio.
