The Gaywood River Revival group reported high concentrations of E. Coli and other pollutants at Derby Fen, a protected site, after frequent sewage releases from Anglian Water's storm overflow at Grimston.

The group conducted tests revealing concerning levels of bacteria and chemicals, indicating potential health risks for those near the river. Despite Anglian Water's investments to improve sewage infrastructure, campaigners argue that untreated sewage discharges continue, posing a threat to the local ecosystem.
