Data obtained by #climate education charity One Home shows the Government’s £5,000 Property Flood Resilience (PFR) grant scheme is comprehensively failing to reach those who need it most. Siobhan Connor Mary Long-Dhonau OBE quoted in The Mirror Nada Farhoud 🇱🇧🇬🇧 💚🌳🐾 #flooding @JBuckleyLabour

Property lawyers should encourage homebuyers to commission climate change surveys examining risks such as flooding, erosion, wildfires, the Law Society recommends - emphasising lawyers who don't make this clear to clients risk being sued for negligence. thetimes.com/article/2ea4e3…

I'm giving oral evidence about #flood resilience today, to the Environmental Audit Committee. On behalf of the 2,000 newly flooded people I've spoken to over the last two winters, I'll have a lot to say!

It was a pleasure to deliver a #keynote at the #Tuflow conference in Bristol. And a delight to listen to Mary Long-Dhonau OBE talk about her lived experience of #flooding and learn about some practical tips to keep the water out! #NatureAndPeoplePositive #climateresilience Arcadis

. Mary Long-Dhonau OBE warns of the danger if the Chancellor were to cut flood budgets as part of the spending review, & how self defeating it would be - sending costs spiralling by causing damage to all other sorts of infrastructure, at the EAC yesterday. parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/8c…

Not just building new flood defences but repairing & maintaining those we already have, restoring our land & our towns so they're soaking up water - we need a multi-faceted approach to reducing flood risk, says Mary Long-Dhonau OBE, or else we face disaster. parliamentlive.tv/Event/Index/8c…

This is APPALLING! #Lincolnshire is one of the most at #flood risk counties. It shows a complete lack of understanding! BBC News - New Reform council abolishes flood committee bbc.com/news/articles/…

Mary Long-Dhonau OBE Feargal Sharkey Round Our Way “I lost boxes of my children’s memories, little handprints, the first drawing of Postman Pat. “Outside my gate were more condoms than I've ever seen in my life.

When Mary Long-Dhonau's aka Mary Long-Dhonau OBE’s home was severely flooded by sewage in the great floods of 2000, her 3-year-old son had just been diagnosed with autism. It took 9 long months to repair. Since then she’s dedicated her life to helping others. mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/m…

I headed to meet Mary Long-Dhonau OBE at one of her advice clinics. Her flood-mobile is kitted with props to demonstrate how people can protect their homes at cost-effective ways. Simple things like covering air bricks with aluminium tape stops water coming through. In today’s The Mirror
