About Us

The Flood Hub People are flood resilience specialists and the ‘people’ behind The Flood Hub website.

The Flood Hub People is part of Newground CIC, a social enterprise delivering professional services which is committed to delivering quality services in a safe and sustainable way, any profits generated from our activities are gift aided into the charity Newground Together. In 2024, The Flood Hub People brand was established as our clients and communities that we work with simply knew us as The Flood Hub, and rebranding to The Flood Hub People better aligned with the core of our work.

The Flood Hub People have delivered flood programmes in partnership with the Environment Agency and Risk Management Authorities for over 15 years. Following the December 2015 floods, the team has delivered the North West Regional Flood and Coastal Committee (RFCC) community flood resilience programme across the region.

Our flood programme covers two main areas of work:

  • Direct community engagement and flood resilience support.
  • The Flood Hub – our online ‘one-stop shop’ flood resilience information website.

 

 

The team supports individuals, businesses and communities to manage their flood risk by planning ahead for flooding, developing flood action groups, producing flood plans and gaining knowledge so that they can be better prepared and more resilient to the effects of flooding.

 

The Flood Hub People have developed a vast array of resources that are held in the Knowledge Hub section of The Flood Hub website. These resources have been created as a result of the feedback gained through our engagement with flood affected communities.

 

The Flood Hub People are proud to be certified to ISO 9001, ISO 14001 & ISO 45001 ensuring quality services are delivered in a safe and environmentally responsible way.
