Flooding

Set up under the auspices of the National Flood Forum in 2014 this local group attempts to get the various interested parties in one room to reduce flood risk in Whitworth. So we invite The Environment Agency, Lancashire County Council, Rossendale Borough Council and Whitworth Town councillors to attend alongside householders and local business. The local MP Jake Berry has given us great support for work. Our guiding philosophy is to work with the government agencies and to attempt to achieve improvements by consensus recognising others challenges.
