Flooding Notice Board
Please click here to find information relating to flooding in Harberton Parish on 17th September 2023, plans for a new Emergency Directory and information about how residents can prepare, and manage the aftermath of, a flooding event.

A new Emergency Directory for Harberton Parish needs your help!
Recent local flooding in Harberton and Harbertonford showed what incredible community spirit that we have here in the Parish, one which makes it such a lovely place to live. However, the Parish Council would like to take some of the lessons learnt from that incident to pool together local knowledge and provide the community with greater collective information that can increase resilience within the local community when dealing with emergency situations.

Are there things that you currently do to prepare for adverse weather or emergency scenarios that help the local community? Do you have any confusion or need clarity on what you need to do to prepare for local emergencies? Is there anything tips or information that you have learnt through recent events that you feel you would like to share with the community?

As a call to action we’re asking local residents to share what 5 pieces of information would you like to have known or would like to share with your neighbours to be as prepared as possible. The more we can all share our local knowledge the more prepared we can all be.   

You can share your information directly with the Parish Clerk at clerk@harbertonparishcouncil.org or follow this link to fill in the ‘5 pieces of information’ online form.  

And, if you would like to get involved with the creation of the Emergency Directory please let us know!
