Norwich Union is encouraging members of the public to lobby the
Government for better flood defences.


The Home and Dry campaign pack gives advice on how to lobby local MPs,
approach the regional press and deal with a flood. It also outlines where
responsibility lies locally and centrally for flood and coastline
defences.


Nick Pierson, head of household products for Norwich Union, said: "There
are almost two million residential and commercial properties at risk of
flooding in England. Flooding is traumatic and causes widespread damage to
property - we want to prevent floods from happening in the first place
which is why we are lobbying the Government to take immediate action."


Mr Pierson continued: "Our research shows that more than 70% of people
believe they can make a real difference by lobbying in their local
area.


The power of these individuals and small groups should not be
underestimated - if their voices are heard by the right people, they have
the potential to be very influential."
