 Prepare for future flooding
We’ve been hit pretty hard by flooding in Wokingham Borough and the Thames Valley in recent weeks.
While the rivers and streams are mostly going down now, as the ground is so saturated it would only take a small amount of rain to put us right back where we were before.
The forecast for the next couple of days is dry, but we are sure to see more rain soon. Here are some tips on how to protect your property and keep yourself safe during adverse weather:
