£1m Funding Boost For South Yorkshire Flood Relief

The Telegraph and other papers covered the Government’s announcement that it would match the funds raised by the South Yorkshire Flood Disaster Relief Appeal Fund up to the value of £1 million, with an additional £300,000 for other affected areas

This follows the devastating floods that hit Yorkshire in November. Environment Secretary Theresa Villiers also announced a review into insurance cover following recent flooding to investigate issues facing communities and small businesses.

This will include an investigation into the extent to which those affected by flooding did not have sufficient insurance cover, and help to identify any implications for future flood events.
