Edlesborough Sewerage problems

A meeting has taken place with Anglian Water regarding the sewerage problems in Edlesborough and Northall which will be looked into. It was mentioned by Anglian Water that more than two-thirds of all blockages contain disposable items and it would like people to be made more aware of items which should not be flushed away or put down the sink.

• Do not pour fats, oils, grease and food waste down the sink or your external drains.
• Do not flush rags, cotton wool, sanitary products, condoms, nappies, plastic or similar materials down the toilet.
• Allow the fats and grease to solidify and then dispose of it in the bin.
• Scrape all food waste off plates into the bin.
• Take unwanted waste cooking oils to designated recycling centres.
