Hertfordshire County Council wants to hear from residents who have a property that has been or is at risk of being flooded...

They are specifically interested in hearing from those residents who want to find out more about measures to prevent future flooding taking place.

The original Flood Resilience Scheme was available to properties that were often in locations where only a few homes were at risk of flooding. Properties that met the criteria for support had the chance to receive a grant of up to £6,000, which was put towards measures such as flood barriers, flood doors and smart airbricks. Recommendations were made by an independent surveyor and installer.

They are now investigating the demand for any future scheme that would support homeowners to ensure that their homes are protected. If the demand for a new scheme is evident, the council will look into the feasibility of creating one with the ambition of offering grants to homeowners.
