“Having been flooded on many occasions, I have been supporting other victims of flooding during recovery for over 20 years. My passion is fighting to raise awareness of flood risk and property flood resilience. You can find me working with homeowners, communities, local authorities, the Environment Agency and Flood Re on this mission.” Mary Long-Dhonau OBE
