MP demanding more help for flood-hit town

Flooding in Bradford on Avon in November 2024

(Gary Johnson)

Melksham and Devizes MP Brian Mathew has written to Emma Hardy MP, the government's minister for flooding, saying that residents and businesses are still waiting for answers - and action.

The floods which hit Bradford on Avon in November 2024 completely closed the town centre, businesses were left underwater, and roads became impassable.
