In the Winter of 2023 devastating storms hit Angus, with the Angus Community enduring record breaking rain fall, floods, and tides.
This weather was a shock to our lives, jobs and homes.
The Angus Climate Hub began the Storm Angus project in an effort to collect the experiences that the people of Angus were happy to share, to create a community record of these events.
​
Read on to find out how this important project has unfolded. (Most recent update May 2025)

STORM
ANGUS
Project
We asked the local community to send us spoken words, videos, pictures and arranged to meet those who preferred to talk to us face to face.​
​
​Our plan was to gather these experiences and share them ​with a wider audience so we could learn together. We intended to do this by putting them into a film to be be shown at the Land x Sea Festival in Montrose - September 2024.
