IMG_1028_gas leak.jpg On Saturday 16th January 2010, after the floods and the big freeze in Ambleside, flooding meltwater got into the gas main pipes and shut down the system. Around 5000 users were affected as the whole of Amblesides gas was shut dopwn. The National Grid reacted with emergency respone units to deal with the situation. This left many vulnerable people without heating and cooking facilities at a very cold time of the year. This shot shows the mobile command unit.

IMG_9212_communications.jpg On Thursday 19th November 2009 over 31cm of rain fell in 24 hours on the Cumbrian mountains. The single largest rainfall total in the British Isles since records began. It caused unprecedented flooding, with Cockermouth being particularly badly hit after both the Cocker and Derwent burst their banks. The main street was 5 feet underwater and £millions worth of damage was caused. Many residents will not only be out of their houses over Christmas but it could be up to a year before some return. This shots shows a BT emergency communications van in Cockermouth where most of the phone lines were destroyed.
