If you have been affected by the floods this week, funding may be available through the Lancashire Community Foundation.

Following Storm Desmond and Eva in 2015 the Community Foundation for Lancashire launched a fundraising appeal and distributed funds to both individuals and community groups that had been affected by the awful floods in the area.

Some funding is still available to help those affected by the floods over the last few days and a new fundraising appeal has been launched.

The fund is now live on Lancashire Community Foundation’s website and includes details of how to apply and the guidelines.
