Flooding impacts a huge number of people across the UK, but communities are consistently let down by government policy. Come hear about a new project to empower these communities by building alliance of residents and small businesses who will push for change.

In this session, we will hear from flood impacted residents and organisers, get a quick introduction to the issue and its national policy context, and reflect together on what the way forward might be.

For those people who are in flood risk areas, there will be an opportunity to connect with others who share their experience and explore possible collaborations. For those who want to stand in solidarity, there will be an opportunity to sign onto lists. For those who wish to know more about the topic, there will be links to further reading documents and sessions to deepen our knowledge.
