On Tuesday 16 April, The Isleworth Society arranged a tour of Mogden Sewage Works with their customer liaison team. We were shown around the enormous plant, given an excellent insight into the sewage treatment process and introduced to its history in the area and in London. This is very topical given Thames Water’s controversial plans to transport water from the Thames in Teddington to East London.
The visit received highly positive feedback and we hope to repeat it in Autumn 2024. Please check the summer newsletter for further information.
