So how did the National Flood Forum come about?
The National Flood Forum has it’s origins in Bewdley Worcestershire. It was the brainchild of
the Bewdley Flood Residents Committee and was started up as a direct result of the floods in the
year 2000.

“Government can offer a partnership to local people to rebuild a community… What works is when communities are empowered to control their own destiny and shape it… This can only be done together”
Tony Blair January 2001

First Flood Fair Held in Bewdley
June 2001
• Proved to be a catalyst for change • Provided first organised marketplace for
flood protection products • Encouraged the idea of self help • Brought numerous requests for help from
flooded communities all over the country

After The Flood Fair
We identified the need for a national body to represent the interests of all communities
affected by flooding

The National Flood Forum
Our Aim is to provide support and advice to
communities and individuals that have been flooded or are at risk of flooding and to be a
collective authoritative voice to influence central and local government, the insurance industry and all agencies that manage flood
risk.

The NFF supports victims of flooding by:
• Running a telephone support service,( our phones do not stop ringing during a flood)
• Facilitate the formation of community led groups- an excellent point of focus for those who manage risk

The National Flood Forum
• We open up two way communication which often breaks down following a flood. Sometimes , neighbour will fall out with neighbour!
• We encourage the agencies who manage flood risk to share knowledge and resources and to work in partnership.

Campaigning
• On behalf of flood ‘victims’ and those at risk • For increased spending on flood alleviation • For consideration of flood resilience measures in
determining insurance premiums/excess • For householder grants to enable the home
owner to put in flood resilience/resistance measures. (Partly successful as Defra are running a trial pilot scheme.)
• For greater use of temporary defences
![Page 38: Bewdley November 2000 - Association of Drainage Authorities Mary Dhonau National... · • For increased spending on flood alleviation • For consideration of flood resilience measures](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022042206/5ea8a28750c59057d859117a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
The NFF is now standing alone financially
and urgently need to raise funds to enable us to grow to meet the demands placed on us.
• The grant from the E/A stopped at the end of last
year. However we are able to charge the E/A for our services.
• We are now registered as a charity which enables us to raise external finding.
• We believe we provide an essential service. The floods of summer 2007 highlighted the need for us to exist.

We Believe
• There should be more understanding of the stress/distress suffered, especially both those working with the newly flooded.

Self Help
• Managing flood risk is not just about
building more hard engineered defences. • Once awareness is raised, often simple
but effective solutions can mitigate the effect flooding has on a home or business.

Case Study: Worcester Action Against Flooding
• Worcester is infamous for flooding

• Worcester doesn’t qualify for flood defences under the government’s priority score.
• Hylton Road floods bi-annually on average, flooding homes, shutting a main access road and causing great financial loss to the businesses along the road.
• Worcester Action Against Flooding lobbied MP and Elliot Morley (who was then the Minister for flooding) and Worcester City Council.
• Result?……
