NALC the National Association of Local Councils is collaborating with ACRE (Action with Communities in Rural England) on a joint survey to progress action 20 from the Rural Flood Resilience Partnership Action Plan around assisting communities to plan for flooding. This follows a positive Rural Flood Resilience Partnership webinar at the end of March, 2025. We are keen to explore how we can support NALC member councils in meeting the needs of our members so that anything which ACRE/NALC subsequently develop is appropriate for parish councils. This short 5 minute survey asking parish councils what information they need in respect of planning for flood resilience will be very helpful so that any proposed activity is relevant to future parish council needs.
The deadline for survey completion (we request ideally one submission per parish council, please) is 23:45 on Friday 29 August 2025.
