Wallace & Gromit creators to make flooding awareness film

Lincolnshire County Council has commissioned the animators behind Wallace and Gromit to create a film raising awareness of the dangers of flooding.

The two-minute-long film, titled A Mole’s Story, was commissioned by the council as part of a Government-funded initiative to protect flood prone areas.

The council is putting £54,124 towards the total cost of the film (£130,249).
