We're at the Glendale Children's Day! School kids from all across Northumberland and Tyne and Wear will get their hands dirty in some "floodwater" and pull out some nasty stuff to learn about the dangers of playing in rivers, puddles, and surface water. ☠️

Thinking of visiting the river this weekend?

Rivers are great places to have fun, but remember - it might be warm outside, but the water is still cold.

💡Did you know, that the Emergency Alerts issued by the Government are strictly only issued when there is risk to life?
This is different to our Flood Warning Service which gives you much more time to prepare and considers the impact on your property.

⚠️ In summer, dry ground can cause sudden #FlashFlooding. When heavy #rains arrive, the thirsty soil can't soak up the #water fast enough, resulting in rapid #runoff and possible #floods.
