Nailsworth Floods !!
16th June 2020
Nailsworth is suffering a devastating flood. A majority of ours shops are under water, causing damage to their buildings and their stock.
At present they are unsure as to whether they will be able to salvage anything. This is a devastating blow to the town, they have worked so hard to update their shops while being shut for the last 3 months due to the pandemic and have only just opened to welcome the public back.
Unfortunately, flooding has become all to common in Nailsworth and with the very hot weather the ground is so hard, and the water is not absorbing into the ground.
Flood damage is going to put an enormous financial burden on those who are unfortunate enough to be affected by it. The water damage to the properties and the stock is going to cause thousands of pounds of debt. Which are traders are not going to be able to shoulder.
So I am asking the town of Nailsworth to join together in raising money to help are traders who have been very sadly affected by today’s storm. We have more rain forecast throughout tonight and tomorrow so it is looking pretty bleak.
