How to best prepare
It’s day two of Bedfordshire Flood Preparedness Week:
Today’s focus is on how to best prepare.
Do you live in an area at risk of flooding? You can take steps to protect your home and family by signing up to free flood warnings: https://bit.ly/checkfloodrisk
Once water is in your home, flood barriers won’t do much. Get prepared ahead with your own floodboards that can protect doors and windows, and aquasacs to keep out water.
Council aquasacs are limited in number and reserved for those who are most vulnerable. Get prepared ahead – you can buy your own or make them by filling old pillowcases with soil or sand, use an old towel to stop flood water coming in or using old wood to protect your windows
