Flooding in Adur

Flood bags (FloodSax®)

Several areas of the Adur district may be at risk from flooding under certain weather and tide conditions. Adur Council is offering residents and local businesses a chance to buy new technology FloodSax® to help them protect their homes in a flood emergency. Over one quarter of the district is at risk of flooding. Floods cause devastating damage to people's lives and homes as seen so often in the news.

The council has tried and tested the FloodSax® and has invested in some to protect its own property and deal with flooding emergencies. They can be stored and packed away and brought out should disaster strike. When they are immersed in water they inflate and act as a barrier to prevent water entering buildings.

To buy the bags at £60 for 10 bags please fill out the form below :

Please return the form to :

  • Adur District Council, Cash Office,
    Civic Centre, Ham Road, Shoreham-by-Sea,
    West Sussex, BN43 6PR

Collection of flood bags : It is intend that collection of the FloodSax® flood bags will be from the Adur Civic Centre on Friday afternoons on production of receipt from cash office.

For more information about the bags please contact :
