With a number of rivers flowing through Elmbridge, businesses in vulnerable areas need to be prepared.
|A guide about how to "Protect your business from flooding" is available from the Business Link website. The guide contains sections on assessing the risk of flooding, drawing up a flood plan, insuring your business against flooding, reducing potential flood damage, training employees to deal with flooding and what to do after a flood.
In addition, the Environment Agency has produced a flood plan template specifically for businesses. It is available on CD and copies can be requested from John Cooper on |john.cooper@environment-agency.gov.uk or 01276 454623.
