Real Voices of Happy Valley 57 Keith Crabtree on floods

Keith Crabtree, born in Cornholme, lived in Todmorden all his life, worked for Environmental Health at Calderdle council and became a flood warden on his retirement. Now a flood volunteer, Keith has views on the lack of maintenance that contributes to floods up and down Calder Valley through Mytholmroyd, Hebden Bridge, Todmorden, Walsden and places in between. He uses his local knowledge to identify problem areas for the community and emergency services. Keith’s Facebook page is a great source of information when things go wrong
