Prefered Builder For FDC’s Flagship Manor Leisure Centre Goes Bust

London building and fitout contractor Curo Construction has ceased trading with more than 100 staff told the business had “exhausted all options” to stay afloat.

Employees at both Curo Construction and Curo Interiors were issued letters on Friday confirming the firms had ceased trading with immediate effect.

In a message sent to staff, directors Darren Pettitt and Steve Conlin said: “We exhausted all options but have been unable to secure a solution that allows the business to continue.”

Workers were told not to return to sites or offices unless specifically instructed otherwise.

WTC Attendance Record

Please be aware that although I did not attend as many ‘meetings’ as would have liked, 
as many are aware, I was extremely unwell for several months last year and was in hospital for 8 days….I carried on regardless with my ‘council work’ irrespective of receiving little or no help or assistance from my fellow ward councillors.
When I’m away – I take a laptop, 2 tablets, and 2 mobile phones, I am ‘always’ contactable and will always respond.

WTC Cllr Attendance to Meetings updated 1st May 2025 to 30th April 2026

Government Gives Money For Play Equipement….

The council is responsible for many parks, open spaces and play areas across the district. Other play parks in the district may be owned by parish councils, private companies or housing providers.

Some of the proposals relate to sites not owned by Fenland District Council and will require landowner approval to go ahead. In some cases, owners of the sites may already have conducted recent consultations about the sites related to their own plans.

Very Good Litter-Pick Today….

Many will see me out and about most ‘Sunny Days’ litterpicking and talking with people.

I am proud and honoured to have been a member of the Whittlesey Street Pride Group, for some 16 years now….I don’t go out in the winter months, but make up for it now.


30 members turned up today and collected around 30 bags of litter and rubbish from around our town.

Nice to see some teenagers doing voluntary work for their Duke of Edinburgh Award Scheme.
