Walham substation

Walham was threatened by the floods

Saving Walham

Listen to our special radio documentary on the huge behind-the-scenes effort that helped save Gloucestershire's main power supply during the floods last Summer...

In Summer 2007 Gloucestershire's main electricity sub-station, at Walham near Gloucester, was flooded.听听听

One night in July, as water lapped around the transformers and switchgear, a hundred and fifty people battled to save Walham from catastrophe and to save the county from total blackout.

This is their story.

Click on the link above to listen to our special half-hour-long radio documentary produced and presented by 成人快手 Radio Gloucestershire's Andy Vivian.

What would we have done had Walham not been saved from flooding? What message have you got for those who worked through the night to save it?

I think it would have been Great this world has gone too much into the future and we'll be helping to save the world, because we won't be using up as much electricity and therefore reducing our carbon footprint =D

This was a really stunning programme which was one of the highlights of the Christmas period for me. It really managed to evoke the atmosphere and unfolding drama at the same time as showing the spirit of those involved. Absolutely brilliant community radio. Truly memorable.

Adeola

Andy
As a City resident I would like to say a big thankyou to all personnel and support workers who worked tirelessly to protect Walham and Castlemeads. Also a big thankyou to those involved at The Mythe and all those in the Command and Control Centres. A job very well done and I for one am proud of you all, as all of Gloucestershire should be!
