Sharing in the community from EDF 🔋⚡️
Hello all,

We wanted to give you advance notice that over the next 24 hours we are going to be bringing one of our reactors offline for its three-yearly statutory outage.

As a result, there may be some increased noise and/or visible steam from the site. This is completely normal for this kind of operation, but we apologise in advance for any disruption this might cause to local residents.

We'd appreciate if you could share this on your channels.

If you have any questions, please get in touch.

Kind regards,
Community Team
Heysham 1 and 2 Power Stations

Amendment - Exhibit opening will be 26th November, not 16th November, sorry for any confusion!

We are so excited to reveal something that our volunteers have secretly been working on...

📸 The Friends are hosting a photography competition this Autumn!

We want to celebrate Heysham for Lancashire Day this November, and what better way than to invite local photographers, whether hobbyist or professional, to submit your photos showcasing our wonderful village?

Competition overview:

· Photographs can be entered from 1st September 2026 – 1st November 2026

· There are 2 categories – Junior (15 and under) and Adult (16 and over)

· Entries from both categories will be selected and exhibited in Heysham Library for all library visitors to enjoy

· Photographs will be judged anonymously by representatives from The Friends of Heysham Library and Morecambe Camera Club along with a special guest judge

· A special open exhibition evening will be held Thursday 26th November from 6:30pm to celebrate the exhibition and in recognition of Lancashire Day, which occurs annually every November

· The winner from each category will be announced and awarded during the evening. We will be pleased to award the winner from the Adult category with 1 year’s free membership of Morecambe Camera Club and a library goodie bag, and the winner from the Junior category with a junior library goodie bag

· All exhibitors will receive a professionally printed copy of their photograph following the exhibition
