Flooding is causing problems across Erewash this afternoon with many schools, roads and transport links being closed. Storm Babet will continue to cause problems for the next 24 hours and I remain on standby to assist in any way that I can.
Free sandbags can be collected from Ilkeston and Long Eaton Town Halls until 4pm. Police are urging residents to only call 999 in a life-or-death situation.
If you need any assistance, then please get in touch by emailing me at [email protected] or calling 0115 9300 521.
