Areas hit hard by flooding after Storm Henk will be able to apply for thousands of pounds in government money to pay for recovery work and repairs.
The government has announced the financial support will be available to eligible areas in England that have experienced exceptional localised flooding.
Schemes include flooded households being eligible for £500 in cash to help with immediate costs.
Cars and road signs have been left almost submerged underwater in the village of Collingham in Nottinghamshire
The support will be made available through a scheme called the Flood Recovery Framework, which is used in exceptional circumstances to support councils and communities following severe flooding.
Communities Secretary Michael Gove said: “If you’ve been affected by the recent severe flooding, you do not have to deal with it alone – we are providing financial help so you can recover as quickly as possible.”
It comes after a cold weather alert warning was issued on Saturday, covering most of this week.
