Following very heavy rain on Thursday 28th June 2012, widespread flooding occurred across Newcastle. We are now working with the Environment Agency, Northumbrian Water, YHN and Newcastle University to help us to reduce the risk of future flood damage to the city.
To do this we need to understand the impact on residents of the recent flood, and we need your help to tell us about any flooding in your street. This will help us to build up a picture of where and how flooding occurred across the City, and allow us to plan for the future.
If you have already reported any flooding incidents to Envirocall, Council Officers or your Councillors, or to Northumbrian Water, please still fill in this questionnaire.

If you have any photographs of the recent flooding that you would like to share with us please also use this address. Photographs will also be really useful to help us build up a picture of the extent of flooding in the city.
We have also set up a website which you may find useful to visit. This can be found at www.newcastle.gov.uk/floodmanagement.
