Communal cleaning company demonstrate how they clean Council properties
A new contractor has been appointed to clean communal areas in the Council’s housing blocks.
AAFD Services, based in Coalville, Leicestershire, has been appointed to clean the areas following a procurement and evaluation process involving officers and a tenant member of the Housing Management Advisory Board.
AAFD works with other local authorities on similar contracts.
The contract is based on a specification - a list of things that the contractor must do when cleaning the blocks. The new specification is different from the old one and we have listened to residents’ concerns over some aspects of the service over the past four years. Some of the main changes are:
- All communal windows, inside...

    Upstream planning (Or lack of it.)L leads to downstream flooding! I'm not sure of the catchment for Quorn but Woodbrook starts up at Charley and Hermitage Brook starts at Loncliffe. The canal was overtopped by Woodbrook at Canal bank. Heavy rain WILL cause this to happen again. Welcome to the effects of gravity - water flows downhill.

    Further to my last comment Loughborough has traditionally been 6 floors or lower which makes this an attractive low lying town, not gradually turning it into a city with high rise buildings.

    I would suggest for future Charnwood Borough Council planning meetings for student accommodation proposals to do a supply and demand study for evidence. To actually get the height of the building proposed and the actual height of the nearby buildings for evidence. I would suggest the councillor who left for another meeting should have stayed for the Limehurst discussion. In terms of HMO buildings students in general tend to like in their first year to be in a Hall of Residence whether this be university owned accommodation or privately owned accommodation, in general students in their second or third year tend to like to be in HMO,s because it is cheaper and part of progressing in life.

    But wouldn’t the shed complex need to be dismantled to make way for the GCR’s reunification project as it is in the way. If this was the case, then obviously they would need to find a new place for the MPD which will be hard as the railway is surrounded by housing estates..

    This was a superb idea. However you should've promoted this to a much bigger audience - maybe through BBC Nottingham, BBC Leicester and BBC Derby; it's not too late to do this all it takes is a phone call. This would promote Loughborough/Charnwood in a positive way. ❤ I look forward to hearing this story on the national news 😊

      Hi John. Thanks for your comment and glad to hear that you enjoyed the video. The local media were invited to the bell casting with BBC Radio Leicester, BBC East Midlands Today, ITV News Central and Fosse 107 all attending. It was broadcasted on their news bulletins on the evening of the bell casting which was on March 16. Unfortunately with it being a couple of weeks ago, it seems I can't send you a link to rewatch their news shows. Thanks, ^Lewis.

      Hi, The Hope Bell structure will be around seven and a half metres tall. It will be a clock chime installation so will have five bells in total, four quarter chime bells and the main Hope Bell. They will be made of a special type of bronze called ‘bellmetal’ which is an alloy of copper and tin. The furnace at Taylor and Co is heated to 1,000 degrees centigrade before casting. Once the molten metal is poured into the mould it remains buried in sand for several days to cool gradually. The bell is then broken out from the mould, cleaned and then tuned before a final polish, a process that can take several weeks. Three of the quarter chime bells have already been cast and you can see them being made in this video. Here are some details about each bell The Hope Bell (the hour bell) - will weigh over a ton at 1,270 kilograms (25 cwt) and will have a diameter of 149 centimetres (4ft 11in). It will play a D note. Quarter bell 4 will weigh 406 kilograms (8cwt), measure 89 centimetres (2ft 11in) and play an A Quarter bell 3 will weigh 228 kilograms (4.5 cwt), measure 70cms (2ft 3.5in) and play a D Quarter bell 2 will weigh 203 kilograms (4 cwt), measure 63 centimetres and play an E Quarter bell 1 will weigh 152 kilograms (3 cwt), measure 56 centimetres (1ft 10in) and play an F# More info: www.charnwood.gov.uk/hopebell
