![]() Good news is coming for parishioners who have a private pumping station on their property. Currently, homeowners have to spend hundreds of pounds every year for electricity running costs, maintenance and repairs to look after these private pumping stations. They may even have been flooded if it’s broken down in the past. From October 2016, many of these private pumping stations will transfer over to Anglian Water and become their responsibility. They will take over all of the maintenance and the running costs too, saving customers hassle, worry and money. Anglian Water would like to ask for your support by asking residents to get in touch if they think they have a private pumping station. To help customers identify and report the pumping stations easily, Anglian Water have launched a specialist website: www.spotapumpingstation.co.uk. If you have any questions about this campaign, please email [email protected]. ![]() An opportunity has arisen for local people to apply to purchase shared ownership housing in Minns Crescent, Poringland (two properties available).
