“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.

I appointed Winston’s as conveyancers for both the sale of my existing home, and purchase of my next one. Sidraa and Tom were fantastic, working with pace and always responsive by email and/or when I called. It was far more seamless than I anticipated and I was incredibly impressed with their efficiency and communication. Thank you!

I found Winston Solicitors through, of all places, a post on Reddit from property flippers. They had great reviews on it and being a trusted person, did my due dilligence and checked Google too. I wasn't disappointed. I had been dealing with Amanda, Tom and Sidraa throughout my sale and purchase. I felt like I had the best team all the way through. Nothing got passed them and they were always prompt, helpful and friendly from start to finish. Sidraa certainly had her work cut out and she made me feel like they had my back and my interests at heart. Please don't be put off by using solicitors miles away. Most of this can be done online nowadays. It's all so easy to do. I don't want to move anytime soon but, if I have to, I will be using Winston Solicitors again and preferably the same team! Thank you all.
