Keep our drains clear
If you see leaves stacked over drains, you will do everyone a favour if you can clear them away to help water drain. If we all take notice and do a little it may save someone's place from being flooded.
We cant expect the council to run around all the the time be looking out for every drain when it rains.
It's also a good time to clear your roof gutters and down pipes, these are source of water damage under or worse into your house when they spill over.
Good luck!
