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




I called for the chancellor not to cut the #flood defence budget Environmental Audit Committee Today. & read this. I am not alone! 👇 abi.org.uk/news/blog-arti…


. 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 mirrors exactly what I was saying to Environmental Audit Committee Only a week ago today. Here is the evidence! BBC News - Battle begins over new homes approved in historic village without sewage capacity bbc.com/news/articles/…





Great to speak to Defra UK Minister Emma Hardy MP yesterday at Flood & Coast. We discussed the value of consolidation, competence and confidence - including training and a specialist register for PFR professionals.

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. We were joking, at least we practice safe sex in Worcester..." #RealBritain mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/m…

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
