Dr Ben Spencer MP today submitted his response to the Amendments to the Flood Re Scheme consultation, calling for greater measures to encourage and support the take up of home flood protection measures, and greater clarity and communication for households at risk of flooding.
Last week I met with Flooding Minister Rebecca Pow to discuss the River Thames Scheme and the need to progress flood alleviation measures to protect homes and businesses in Runnymede and Weybridge.
Flooding, in its many forms, is one of the biggest risks affecting Runnymede and Weybridge, and tackling this was one of my first pledges to residents when elected in 2019.
Mental health care and treatment must be given equal priority as physical health. I will campaign for better funding for child and adolescent mental health services.
