Welcome to the Local Government Flood Forum website

The Local Government Flood Forum (LGFF) is a task and finish cross-party group focused on the Draft Flood and Water Management Bill.

The LGFF was set up by Gloucestershire County Council in response to the summer 2007 floods and is intended to give local government a strong voice and a fair deal.

The purpose of this website is to provide local authorities with information on LGFF as well as updates on the Forum's latest campaigns and development.
