Loughborough residents seek answers after floods

Residents of a housing estate in Loughborough say they're still seeking answers about an overflow pool which put their homes at risk of flooding.

The pool in the Grange Park estate was designed to store rainwater, but there was too much for it to contain during recent floods.

Around 30 people on the estate dug around 400 metres of trenches to protect their homes from rising floodwater.

大象传媒 reporter Emily Anderson spoke to residents, and Ady Dayman heard from ex-Royal Engineer Ben Stockley who led the digging efforts.
