We are Flooded
People UK.
Flooded people helping each other to protect their homes and communities.
Let's protect our communities

We believe that flood management is an essential public service and an investment in our future. When homes, businesses, and roads aren't safe, communities cannot grow and thrive.
Flooded people should be at the centre of the changes we make.
What needs to happen

We support the National Infrastructure Commission's recommendation to achieve a national standard of protection. This means a big plan to get shovels in the ground to keep people safe.
To get there, we need to reform the way flood management is funded. Currently, anyone can put someone else at risk and let the tax payer or individual pay for clearing up the mess. Changing this will stop making things worse and raise the revenue needed.
Beyond this, for those floods we can't stop, we strongly believe in a humane system to help people cope and recover.
How we work
We put flooded people at the centre of everything we do.
There is too much need and not enough government support. Until there is, flooded people are going to help each other as best they can, building a national voice to influence change.
Flooded People UK is already starting to facilitate shared help and shared learning.

Our plan for change
We want flooded people to work together and build coalitions for safe, dry, and thriving communities.
We work to evolve the UK's cross-party consensus on flooding. When change happens, whether after a flood or during a moment of planning, we want to be at the core of it.
