Power outage compensation

11/6/2019

 

Power outage compensation

About 70 houses in Levens had a power outage on Friday 31 May - lasting from midday for about 15 hours. If this affected residents they can submit an outage claim on the Electricity North West website (enwl.co.uk) - it only takes about 5 minutes - and they send you £75. This is not dependant on frozen food or anything else - it is a govt scheme - plus it will focus ENWL to invest in (Levens) infrastructure - they made £100 million profit last year - yet the power failed as the lines have not been maintained!

Book on local history of malaria

13/12/2016

 
Picture
from Levens Local History Group:
Ague or marsh fever (vivax malaria) is a disease transmitted by female blood sucking mosquitoes that breed in shallow stagnant water. During the 16th to 19th centuries it was endemic in the English fenlands and the coastal marshes of Kent and Essex. However, the history of the disease in many parts of Britain, especially the north, is poorly researched and incompletely understood. This book draws together a highly dispersed literature to present a picture of the history, past distribution and importance of ‘the ague’ in northern Britain, with a particular focus on Cumbria. The book concludes by examining the possibility of malaria re-establishing its former presence in Cumbria and the north as a result of climate warming and other factors.
