I have just seen the videos of the burst water main on Radford Road and it is pretty shocking to see the extent of the damage . I found this on the Sutton and East Surrey Water website where residents can find updates about the incident .Nick .

Report a leak, follow updates and stay informed with what's happening In Your Area.

Fly-tipping is a growing issue in and around Crawley and its great that there will be Government support to help CBC combat this problem in the local area.

We are pleased to confirm that Labour's team for the local elections for Pound Hill North & Forge Wood will be Zahid Raja for the Borough Council and Nick Hilton for the Pound Hill Division of West Sussex County Council.
Our priorities have been to keep this area clean, green and safe. We are proud that:
- The Council have agreed extra resources for our local neighbourhood services team based at Ridleys who carry out grass cutting, collect litter and remove fly tipping.
-The Environmental Enforcement teams are dealing with residents who drop litter and fly tip.
- Worth Park has been awarded a Green Flag award and is a haven for nature & biodiversity.
- Our hard work as ward councillors has paid off to push for the Grattons Park play area to be repaired and it will be totally refurbished in 2027.

We have regular meetings with the local PCSO that have focussed on anti-social behaviour and how the Council and the Police can work together to sort out common issues.
We worked with residents in St Mary's Drive to investigate the source of pollution in the Gatwick stream .
After years of inactivity we worked hard to put road safety at the top of the agenda at school side in Forge Wood. If elected to the County Council Nick will campaign for the speed limit to be cut along Radford Road, which local residents have been waiting far too long for.
Support us by voting Labour in Pound Hill North and Forge Wood in the local elections and help us continue the good work we started here 3 years ago.

Something a little different..

As residents will probably know ,the world marbles championship was held as usual on Good Friday at the Greyhound in Tinsley Green. People may have seen this before but this video has been shared from the BBC archive page . It is a report about the World Marbles Championship from the mid 1970s and is well worth a watch !
