Prepare For Flooding

Flooding is a regular occurrence in Scotland and can happen at any time of the year.

With changes to our weather, flooding is happening more often. Preparing for flooding can help reduce damage to your home and keep you and your family safe.

The Scottish Government Campaign ‘Prepare for Flood’ aims to:

• Increase public awareness in Scotland of the dangers associated with flooding;
• Highlight key resources the Scottish public can use to learn how to keep themselves, their families and their community safe before, during and after flooding.

The Ready Scotland website provides advice for the public on how to prepare their home, family, and business for disruption caused by emergencies, including severe weather. It also provides information on how to respond, keep safe, and help others in the community when emergencies do occur.
