Homeowners still not defending against flooding
New research has revealed that homeowners in flood hit areas have done little or nothing to reduce their risk of future damage.
The study by Norwich Union has revealed that 83% of people living in Gloucester, Tewksbury, Hull, Sheffield and Rotherham believe there is nothing they can do to protect their home from flooding.
Consequently 95% have not taken any measures that could help prevent or significantly reduce the stress and emotional trauma of a future event. This is despite the fact that nearly half (43%) of those affected by last summer’s floods say their fear of flooding has increased since their experiences.
