CURRENT NEWS
This October has been one of the wettest on record and resulted in massive floods in many parts of Britain. One of the worst affected areas has been the area surrounding the River Severn.
In Shrewsbury the town centre was under water and the town was virtually cut off from the outside world as bridges were closed and the trains were cancelled. More bad weather is expected this weekend and could make matters even worse.
Further down the river the towns of Bridgenorth, Bewdley and Worcester are all severely flooded with the emergency services being stretched to the limit coping with this major disaster. For some families it is the second time in the last few months that they have been flooded.
