What could happened?

Local Risk Likelihood to Occur Potential Impacts

Daventry Road could experience further flooding if preventative maintenance not undertaken to drain system on a regular basis.

Medium - High Flooding to dwellings. As the A361 is a main road this creates a danger to traffic and pedestrians. Further flooding downstream in the village

Bottom of Rugby Road Continuing flood issues yet to be resolved. This area is one the main discharge points for surface water in the village.

Medium - High Create flooding issues in the village as the water is unable to discharge at a reasonable rate causing a back flow of water. Busy access road to the village, therefore flooding issues create a danger for traffic and pedestrians

A361 Daventry Road Housing Development Attenuation Pond

Med - High Possibly overflow issues if not maintained to a high standard.

Version 1.219


Barby Road

Low - Med Discharge point for surface water. Can be exposed to minor flooding in fields and road if ditches not maintained

General Ditch Maintenance around village

Medium Ongoing ditch clearance required to maintain resilience

Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal (DIRFT) is close to Kilsby. Incidents at their many warehouses could potentially impact on Kilsby

Low - Med Closure of roads at DIRFT could increase traffic flow, speeding and congestion through Kilsby

DIRFT HGVs use the A5 and A361 which border/run through the village

Any accident involving an HGV could impact on Kilsby in terms of road access or the need for emergency help for any casualties.

N) Useful Information to help everyone in the community

Winter Weather Nearly all communities, regardless of where they live, are likely to face some type of severe winter weather at some point during the year. Winter storms can range from a moderate snow over a few hours to a blizzard that lasts for several days. Many winter storms are accompanied by dangerously low temperatures and sometimes by strong winds, ice, sleet and rain. One of the biggest concerns is the winter weather’s ability to knock out heat, power and communications services, sometimes for days at a time. Heavy snowfall and extreme cold can immobilize a wide area. In a winter weather scenario you should:

Check on older neighbours or relatives to make sure they’re safe and well. Make sure they’re

warm enough, especially at night, and have stocks of food and medicines so they don’t need to go out during very cold weather. If you are worried about a relative or neighbour, contact Wrapped Up Northants on 0845 677 2220.

Keep up to date with road and weather conditions and severe weather alerts.

Make sure that your community is ready for cold weather by informing them of how to stay safe this winter. www.nhs.uk has useful information on how to KEEP WARM AND KEEP WELL during cold spells.

Clear your car of any ice or snow, make sure your car is winter ready and you have a car emergency kit.

Wear suitable clothes and footwear.

Encourage people to get the flu jab. The Snow Code

There is no law stopping you from clearing snow and ice from paths pavements or public spaces outside your home, shop or office.

Don’t be put off clearing snow & ice because you’re afraid someone will get injured. Regardless of what you do, pedestrians & drivers have a responsibility to be careful themselves.

Doing your part may help the local community and will be very helpful to the more vulnerable members of society.

Go to the following NCC website for more: www.northamptonshire.gov.uk/ emergencies

Heatwave Most of us welcome hot weather, but when it’s very hot there are health risks. The very young, and the elderly are particularly at risk. Very hot weather can make heart and breathing problems worse. The Meterological Office has a warning system that issues alerts if a heatwave is likely. The following advice applies to everybody when it comes to keeping cool and comfortable and reducing health risks:

Take notice of alerts on the radio, TV and www.metoffice.gov.uk about keeping cool.

Version 1.219


Visit or phone people who are less able to look after themselves, such as older neighbours, relatives and friends, and people with health conditions or mobility problems.

Shut windows and pull down the shades when it is hotter outside. If it’s safe, open them for ventilation when it is cooler.

Avoid the heat: stay out of the sun and don’t go out between 11am and 3pm (the hottest part of the day).

Keep rooms cool by using shades or reflective material outside the windows. If this isn’t possible, use light-coloured curtains and keep them closed (metallic blinds and dark curtains can make the room hotter).

Have cool baths or showers, and splash yourself with cool water.

Drink cold drinks regularly, such as water and fruit juice. Avoid tea, coffee and alcohol.

If you go outside wear sunglasses, a hat and suitable light loose fitting clothing and apply sun cream.

IF YOU SUSPECT THAT SOMEONE HAS HEATSTROKE, CALL 999 IMMEDIATELY. HEATSTROKE CAN CAUSE IRREVERSIBLE DAMAGE TO YOUR BODY, INCLUDING THE BRAIN, OR DEATH. Power Outage

When the weather is nice it’s easy not to give a second thought to preparing for storms. But thinking ahead can give you peace of mind when weather turns threatening. To get the latest information on power cuts local to you, and who to contact for further information go to www.westernpower.co.uk/Power-outages/What-s- Happening.aspx

Keep a torch handy. Avoid using candles and paraffin heaters.

Keep a wind-up/battery/solar radio ready so you can listen to local radio updates.

Many modern telephones, especially digital or cordless ones don’t work in a power cut. Keep an ordinary analogue one handy.

Protect sensitive electrical equipment such as computers with a surge protector plug.

If you have a mains operated stair lift, check to see if there is a manual release handle that can be used to return the stair lift safely to ground level if it stops working. Western Power Distribution have a Priority Services Register, so they are aware of residents needs and can advise them accordingly. If anyone in your community is vulnerable register at www.westernpower.co.uk/About-us/Priority-Services/Priority- Services-Register.aspx

Don’t assume that the power company know you have no power. Please ring them as soon as

possible. If they already know about the problem, they should be able to tell you when they

expect your electricity to be restored. Please call 105.
