A charity boss has said the situation for homeowners flooded out by Storm Babet in a Suffolk town was still a mixed picture some three months after the event.

Nick Corke, chief executive of Hour Community, said the more than 70 Framlingham residents affected by flooding had experienced different outcomes in the aftermath of October's storm, with some being able to access insurance money, while others had not.

On Sunday, a panel of representatives from the Environment Agency, Suffolk County Council and conservation charity Suffolk Wildlife Trust is due to meet the public to discuss the impact of Storm Babet and what can be done in the future.

The meeting is due to take place at Castle Community Rooms in Framlingham between 3pm and 5pm.

But Mr Corke said: "We have got people who are still fighting with insurance companies, people who have been told they are not insured, people who are fighting with their loss adjusters.

"Some people have got their money, some people have not got their money."

The residents have received some money through a separate government flood recovery scheme, administered by East Suffolk Council, which has provided £500 grants and council tax reductions totalling £36,500.

In addition, a fundraising appeal set up by Hour Community has raised £30,000 to help replace possessions lost during the flooding, including curtain poles and bedding.

Businesses in the town have also been affected by the flooding, including Castle Shoes in Albert Place which is still closed.

The shop lost more than £60,000 of stock, which had become covered in mould and sewage from overflowing toilets.

On January 5, Donna Hammond, who owns the shop with her husband Dave, posted on social media that she was in daily talks with loss adjusters and a flood restoration company and had been advised that the repairs could take six months to complete.

Roads became impassable and cars were submerged in the brown water that engulfed the town during the flooding on October 20.
