“Sick” money-saving idea sees pool heated by crematorium

Redditch Borough Council has come up with a new way to save on their electricity bills. A recent proposal sees the council planning to heat the Abbey Stadium Sports Centre by using the excess heat generated by the crematorium, situated next door.

The council claims that such a move would save £14,500 a year but opponents of the scheme slam it as being “sick and eerie”.

Simon Thomas, a funeral director in the town, says: “I think it will cause uproar and may even put people off using the facilities which would lose the council money. It just doesn’t feel right.”

However, council leader Carole Gandy says it will make no difference to the people who use the crematorium for services. A public meeting will be held to discuss the matter before it comes up again at the council’s executive committee.

James was excellent. He provided clear, precise advice and always outlined my options. He is a real asset to the company, and I have no hesitation in recommending him to anyone in a similar situation to mine.

Can not recommend enough. I have used Samantha Robertson Strong for both the purchase and sale of my old house and she was amazing from start to finish. She always went above and beyond and always dealt with things in a speedy and efficient manor whilst always explaining exactly what was happening. Thanks for everything Sam.

Used Winston solicitors for years now and wouldn't go anywhere else. Samantha and the team have been excellent and I'm extremely impressed with the service I've been provided. Would 100% recommend them for property purchases and sales.

Winston Solicitors was recommended to me by a friend, and I now know why. Samira supported me during a difficult time and made everything feel manageable. She’s extremely knowledgeable, efficient, and great to work with. I felt supported throughout the process. I’d happily return if I needed help again and will be recommending Winston Solicitors to others. A fantastic team!
