IMPORTANT INFO RE STORM HENK

If your property was flooded during Storm Henk (2-5 January 2024), it’s important that you report it to Warwickshire County Council and to your insurance company.

Reporting flooding to the County Council may help secure Government funding to help you recover from the effects of the flood, and will help local authorities plan future flood prevention measures.

Warwickshire has not yet reached the required threshold of 50 properties confirmed as flooded, to be eligible for this Government funding, so it’s crucial that you report flooding to help us secure this support for you.

You can report flooding in your home at https://www.warwickshire.gov.uk/flooding
