All Leicestershire flood wardens are being invited to attend a flood warden information day on Saturday 7 March 2026 to help them support local communities tackle the threat of flooding.
Tori Edwards, Operations and Contingency Planning Sergeant for Leicestershire Police, explains why resilience is everyone's business - and how the small things we do can make a big difference.
A workshop to boost resilience and effective emergency response around high risk sites was the latest training to bring together partners from across the LRF.
Luke Thrussell, Senior Network Planner for National Highways (Midlands), helps to keep traffic moving on some of the region’s busiest roads – including a number of the key routes that will be used for the festive getaway.
Our campaign calling for more local people and businesses to be prepared ahead of flooding has been backed by villagers who were among the hardest hit in Leicestershire’s worst floods almost a year ago.
Flood experts from our partner agencies have been offering doorstep advice to residents in Loughborough - one of the places badly affected by flooding in recent years.
Our teams worked throughout the night to monitor the impact of Storm Claudia, which triggered an amber weather warning for heavy rain across the region.
