I was very pleased to attend the opening of the Tyne Green Flood Scheme in Hexham.  The scheme protects 15 protects 15 houses which flooded during Storm Desmond in 2015. As Northumberland’s representative on the Regional Flood and Coastal Commission I was able to support the scheme when council officers brought it to the committee for funding. The community has also contributed to this unique scheme.
