The following email from Surrey County Council has been received by LOSRA. It will be seen that it covers all three affected Boroughs including Spelthorne:
Surrey Flood Recovery Appeal:
The Community Foundation for Surrey has launched a Surrey Flood Recovery Appeal to help people and communities recover from the devastating floods.
The priority of the funding is to support community and voluntary groups assisting in the relief effort in easing the immediate difficulties communities are facing and to support their recovery over the coming weeks and months. The aim of the appeal is to support the most vulnerable and isolated and to encourage local people to support others in their time of need.
You can make a donation to the fund online or cheques made payable to Surrey Flood Recovery Appeal can be sent to:
Community Foundation for Surrey, 1 Bishop’s Wharf, Walnut Tree Close, Guildford, Surrey, GU1 4RA
