UK flood victims. Help an volunteers needed.

I'm wanting to put together a volunteer group of restorers to help UK households who' photos have been the victim of the recent floods. This will be on the same lines as http://www.operationphotorescue.com and any work will be done in your spare time. This is in the planning stage at the moment, but I'm seeing what kind of response I get here (as well as other sites/companies).
I don't want to jump the gun, and end up with 1000's of photos to do myself, so to date I have a group of 11 restorers (amateur and pro). If all goes to plan, I'm hoping to get this on the national and local news etc (once I'm sure we have enough people to do the work).
So if you would like to volunteer a small amount of your time, please post here and let me know. Or if you know of anyone else in the UK doing this, please post a link so we can work together.
I'm hoping to have image file downloads and/or Emailing files, but this is again all in the planning stage. Volunteers can then be world wide, thus opening the door to as many restorers as possible.

Re: UK flood victims

These are the times I wish I had a better handle on restoration. I just don't feel confident enough in that area to be of help, Doug, but hope you find others who can.

Re: UK flood victims

If I'm any use, I'll take a bash. I know some of the victims who live in Donny and surrounding areas.
