Here is the latest round-up from Aberdeenshire Council about the aftermath of the latest storms to hit the North East.
SSEN SUPPORT
For customers without power who need support and are unable to make alternative arrangements to stay with family or a friend, SSEN will reimburse reasonable costs for alternative accommodation.
Customers unable to access welfare facilities and who remain off supply may claim back the cost of meals up to £15 per person. Customers are being asked to keep copies of receipts for any claims.
