THE SEARCH IS ON FOR THE UK’S BEST NEIGHBOUR!  People across the UK are being invited to take part in our annual hunt for the UK’s ‘Neighbour of the Year’ – a nationwide search undertaken in partnership by Co-op Insurance and Neighbourhood Watch.

This award will celebrate the nation’s most outstanding community (could be a street, a sports club, a faith collective, or anything in between, either in person or virtual, such as a WhatsApp, Facebook, or Slack group) and the lengths its members have gone to to support others and make a real difference.  To nominate your Neighbour of the Year, Young Neighbour of the Year (for people aged 21 years and under) or Community of the Year, and to find out more about these very special awards please visit coop.co.uk/noty.

Cottenham Parish Council have received the following update from Anglian Water, regarding the upcoming works in Cottenham; Anglian Water have made the decision to postpone the work.

Following our conversations, and having listened to the concerns of the residents of Cottenham, we have decided to delay the works. This means that the work (and associated traffic management) will not begin on the 1^st September. I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for an inadvertent confusion caused by this process.

Whilst these works are essential, we have taken on board the comments that you have kindly provided, and have made the decision to remodel and amend the works to understand if we can complete with less impact on the village. We did originally plan for these works to go ahead in the summer, as you will know, however this wasn’t possible due to Highways England work on the A14.

It will likely be a number of months before we are able to begin this work due to highways permits and notices, but I would be hugely grateful if we could work together to minimise the impact, appreciating that you all have a great understanding of the community and resident’s needs. As these plans are developed we will be doing much more communication with individuals and businesses.

Dear Residents,

We are writing to inform you that we will be conducting our final set of piling works at our development on the land of Hayden Way on w/c 23.08.21. This work is to be completed within one week and we have noise and vibration assessment equipment set up to ensure we remain inside of our planning obligations.

We hope that this will not cause any undue disturbance and we maintain committed to keeping all activities on site as unintrusive as possible to current residents.

Kind Regards

Brampton Valley Homes Ltd

Please be aware that there will be piling works taking place at the development site on Hayden Way on w/c 23.08.21 lasting for a period of 5 days. The developer will be advising residents of the work via Facebook on the Willingham village page and will also complete a letter drop to residents. All works will be in accordance with planning guidelines, and they have also requested at their cost a noise and vibration monitor to ensure the works will not be too intrusive to residents.
