FLOOD-HIT riverside residents are being invited to look at ways of making their homes watertight.

A flood defence firm is in Tenbury Wells until 5.30pm marketing its flood barriers, watertight building sealants and self-closing air bricks for the people of the town.

In February it was announced up to 115 households in the town, with a one in 100 year flood risk, could apply for grant cash of up to £7,000 per property to go towards the cost of flood defences.

Droitwich-based UK Flood Barriers is in the high street by the Royal Oak Hotel in Market Street until 5.30pm.

Nigel Bannon, head of surveying and quality control, said: "It's not a hard sell, we're just here so people can have a look at what options we can provide.

"We've had a few people around this morning.

"Many of them have been interested in the solution we put onto brickwork to stop water getting in, and our barriers as well."
