Thousands of flood victims are hung out to dry

Thousands of flood victims are missing out on government support to help protect their homes from future storms.

Thousands of flood victims are hung out to dry

Data obtained by climate education charity, One Home, shows the Government's £5,000 Property Flood Resilience (PFR) grant scheme is failing to reach those who need it.

The PFR grant scheme enables homeowners whose houses have flooded to apply through their local authority, for a £5,000 grant to help make their property more resilient to future storms by 'building back better'.

Following Storms Babet in October 2023 and Henk in January 2024, more than 4,000 homes and businesses were eligible to apply, but successful applications were shockingly low.
