A CALL TO ALL FLOOD VICTIMS: DEADLINE 4th NOVEMBER

 

Dear Neighbours,

 

As many of you know I have been working with members of the RBKC’s Flood Risk Management Group over the past year.  Below is an email asking for help from RBKC residents to gather evidence about the effect of the flood on your life and what sort of flood alleviation measures you have installed yourself or would like to see.  I know from your emails and our conversations that for many of us this is a really traumatic subject but it is really important that we gather this material so I hope that you can take part.  The Consultation closes 4^th November

 

With best wishes

Fiona Fleming-Brown

Please find information, below, about the call for evidence which has been launched by the Flood Risk Management Working Group, which is chaired by Cllr Adourian.

 

You may wish to share this information about the call for evidence with residents in your ward.

 

Call for Evidence: Flooding Risk Management Working Group

Do you have experience of flooding or flood risk management in the borough? If so, you can submit a written submission to the Flooding Risk Management Working Group.

 

The purpose of the call for evidence is to allow members of the working group to have a greater in-depth understanding of how residents are being affected by flooding and flooding risk. Ideally, your submission should focus on:

 

•            how flooding or flooding risk has affected your home or household

•            how flooding or flooding risk has affected your quality of life

•            what you have done, or would like to do, to manage flooding risk.

 

Members of the working group will consider the responses, which will be anonymised, as part of their evidence-gathering and in the development of their final report and recommendations.

 

The call for evidence opens on Friday 30 September and closes on Friday 4 November.

Please email your submission to scrutiny@rbkc.gov.uk and write ‘Flooding Scrutiny Submission’ in the subject line. If you are unable to email, post your responses to: Scrutiny Team, Kensington Town Hall, Hornton Street, London, W8 7NX.

 

Please do not provide unnecessary personal details or identify other individuals. Please note that the call for evidence isn’t part of the Council’s complaints processes and can’t be used for complaints and information about other organisations. We may contact you about your submission, which should be no more than 2 sides of A4 or 1,000 words.

 

Kind regards,

 

Callum Southern
