Householders can get help

HOUSEHOLDER HELP YOURSELF DAY


When: Tuesday 23 May – 1PM - 6PM


Where: Kirkgate Arts Centre, Cockermouth


Flooding is an issue we are all too familiar with. This drop in event, organised by Cockermouth Emergency Response Group, will be packed with useful information from a number of organisations to help you with your household flood resilience.

You can:

  • Register with CERG to be a volunteer or householder – and learn more about what we do! Find out more about insurance for vulnerable properties

  • Learn about property protection (including lower priced in this Cost of Living Crisis) from the Floodhub

  • Sign up directly with the Environment Agency for flood alerts and warnings, plus have the chance to discuss local flood prevention schemes directly with them

  • Learn about United Utilities plans for Crummock Water

  • Discover the innovation being shown here in Cumbria by the CiFR programme using natural flood management in liaison with Natural England

  • Talk to the Local Resilience Forum who work with Cumberland Council in helping communities
