Recommendation 31
31
Local flood groups and volunteers are undervalued, underfunded, and inadequately supported.
Conclusion
Local flood groups and volunteers are indispensable to England’s resilience, yet they remain undervalued, underfunded, and poorly supported. Without proper recognition and resources, this community capacity risks collapsing at the very moment it is most needed. (Conclusion, Paragraph 108)
