Mobile flood warnings for Northumberland residents

Those on the O2 network who live in areas at high risk of flooding across the region will receive an automated text message informing them that they have been signed up, with a link to let them know what they should do if they receive a flood warning and the option to opt out.

The roll-out is happening right across the North East, in areas including Warkworth, Amble, Blyth, Ponteland, Berwick, Hexham and Haydon Bridge in Northumberland.
