For Information

If you have been impacted by the recent flooding in Northamptonshire, please see the below information.

From 1st April 2021, Northamptonshire County Council and the seven district and borough councils have been replaced by two new Unitary Councils – West Northamptonshire and North Northamptonshire.

This Flood Toolkit website is currently being updated to reflect these changes. If you or others have been impacted by flooding then please continue to report it on our Report a Flood page and a member of the flood and water team will respond.
