Council Help After Flooding

Surrey CC Providing Help After Floods and Bad Weather

With bad Weather continuing to affect Sussex and Surrey, residents and drivers are being urged to keep updated on flood alerts and weather warnings.

People are being advised to be extra cautious when out and about,  and to consult the environment agency website for advice on what to do after flooding.

And to help residents with clearing up debris and scattered rubbish after the floods,  Surrey County Council have provided extra skips across the County.

Advice on what to do after flooding can be found on the Environment Agency and Public Health England websites.

Residents can find out the latest on river flooding and the weather by visiting the Environment Agency and Met Office websites.

To contact the Environment Agency’s floodline, call 08459 881188. To report a power cut, contact UK Power Networks on 0800 783 8866 or SSE.

Water supply problems can be reported to Thames Water, Sutton and East Surrey, Affinity Water and Southern Water.

Drivers and residents can keep updated on general safety tips via the county council’s website and on local travel updates via the Surrey Travel Twitter feed and BBC website. The county council has also been helping out with clearing roads and removing fallen trees while Surrey 4×4 Response has been providing the authority with extra support.

People are being urged to use extreme caution when out and about, and to check on any vulnerable neighbours they think may need help. For more information on adult social care, visit the county council’s website.
