Downpatrick business owner pleads for help after floods devastate town
– A business owner in Downpatrick has pleaded for more support to repair the town centre after her shop and several others were flooded.
– The operation to pump water from the area was successfully completed on Saturday, but business owners have been left with devastated properties and stock as they wait for assessors and insurance companies to survey the damage.
– Ms Douglas said she has lost around £7,000 worth of stock and around £30,000 of equipment due to the flooding.
– She said her insurance was not helping to cover for any of the damages, citing act of God reasons.
– Ms Douglas said she is hoping the UK Government will stand up for the business owners and residents in Downpatrick and “help us out”.
