UK flooding: 1.5 million at-risk homes ‘unprepared’

The UK could be hit by a wetter-than-normal winter with households urged to be prepared for the risk of flooding.

The agency disclosed findings from a survey which suggested three-fifths (61%) of households in flood-risk did not believe their property was at risk from flooding.
