The funding will be available for eligible communities where 10 or more properties have flooded twice or more in the last 10 years, and where community-wide defences are not always viable.
The Frequently Flooded Allowance aims to improve access to public funding for small communities recovering from damage.
The money can be used to support existing eligible flood schemes which offer traditional defences and natural flood management, such as planting vegetation and building floodways. "The Environment Agency has a successful track record in delivering flood and coastal defence schemes across the country, having better protected more than 314,000 homes from flooding since 2015."
