I have been looking for a copy of some policy documents/ data related to flooding and haven't been able to find some of them on your website. Could you please point me in the right direction, or provide me with copies of the following for a flood risk study:

1. GIS files (shapefiles or similar) of areas with critical drainage problems, or local flood risk zones ('wetspots/hotspots' or flood zone 3a,3b) as define by either the SWMP or SFRA or other measures
Flood data can be accessed from gov.uk, via the following link: https://www.gov.uk/check-long-term-flood-risk

2. Updated/ available - current and previous reports and appendices of SWMP (Surface water management plan) or similar, SFRA (Strategic flood risk/ Consequence assessment), PFRA (preliminary flood risk assessment), LFRMS (Local Flood risk strategy)
LFRMS: https://www.wokingham.gov.uk/community-and-safety/emergencies/flooding-and-drainage/sustainable-drainage-systems-suds-strategy
SFRA & PFRA: https://www.wokingham.gov.uk/planning-policy/planning-policy-information/environment-evidence/water-and-flood-risk

3. Copies of any Supplementary Planning Documents with regards to flood risk, drainage and climate change.
