What the water touched | British Red Cross

On the night of 16 February 2020, Storm Dennis hit the village of Nantgarw in the Rhondda Cynon Taf area of Wales.
The residents of Nantgarw were roused from their sleep by the sound of water pouring into their homes.
Flood levels rose at an alarming rate, trapping people in their homes and leaving little time to save precious belongings.
It would be even longer before any sense of normality returned to the community.
Since the devastating impact of Storm Dennis, the British Red Cross has set up a new emergency response team in RCT to support the community with any future floods.   
Our report, Every time it rains, reveals that only 24% of people know how to get flooding information, whilst only 29% have a good understand of their areas’ flood risk.
