For his latest project ‘Faces of the Floods’ Charlie Clift travelled to Somerset Levels and photographed the volunteers and servicemen helping with the floods.

“I want  to show the effort and the people behind the struggle,” says the freelance portrait photographer. “I hope the pictures will promote the flood relief efforts and encourage more people to help.”

More than 6,000 homes have been affected by floods in the UK this winter. Thousands of people have suffered. Hundreds of people are helping those in need.

Help the flood victims here:

Somerset flood relief fund

Environment Agency
