AFTER more heavy rain, flodding continues to impact on Hitchin, forcing some residents to move from their homes as a precaution.

Following the closure of Woolgrove Road in Hitchin and the evacuation of some residents, St Faith's Church has opened its doors for any affected residents to get advice and a warm drink.

St Faith's Church will remain open until 8pm this evening (Friday 27). It will open again tomorrow (Saturday 28) from 10.30am-12pm and 2-4pm. If you need to contact us outside of these hours you can call our Herts Careline number on 0300 999 2 999.

North Herts' Council's street cleaning team will support the clean up work once flood waters have receded.

Meanwhile, if you, or anyone you know is affected by the recent flooding, please report it to Hertfordshire County Council.
