SERVICE UPDATE
Sunday 25 October

Due to predicted wind gusts of 55mph+, we will be closed for the day only. The safety of our team and visitors is paramount and we don’t run when gusts are predicted to be over 45mph.

The rest of the week looks good so we’ll open daily from Monday until the following Sunday.

Today we are launching our autumn appeal. With a month to go before the end of our main season, we are asking for whatever you can spare to help sustain us through winter.

As a not-for-profit company, the WWLR has been supporting our local towns and villages for decades; bringing visitors, custom and the rich and vibrant echoes of times gone by.

Whether a volunteer, visitor or an admirer from afar, we are family.

Thank you!

Just to warn everyone.

Although Anglian Water - Love Every Drop completed the works on the burst water main yesterday they have left traffic lights and a digger in the road to cause traffic congestion on the main Stiffkey to Wells coast road over the Bank Holiday weekend.

Their chatbots and call centre say work is still required but the workmen said all is complete and the ground has been reinstated. The digger would be collected after the weekend they said.

Not only have they left the lights in a position that could be dangerous to drivers, for no other reason than they want to come back for the digger, Anglian Water are content for a popular seaside resort and it’s businesses and visitors to face unnecessary congestion and delays over a really important long weekend.

They may love every drop but they don’t seem to love the communities they serve.

They are also impossible to talk to with call centres, chat bots and AI assisted WhatsApp’s.
