To protect people and the environment in mining areas our people and teams work in a wide range of environments. In the north-east our Horden mine water treatment scheme was built to protect local drinking water from rising mine water in the area. This drone flyover of the site was captured by a member of staff and offers a great overview of the site and the rugged Durham heritage coastline that we operate on.

As the Mining Remediation Authority, our remit covers England, Scotland and Wales and a wide range of landscapes, from remote hillsides to densely populated towns and cities. Our teams work across the coalfield at all times and in all conditions and capture some fantastic images to showcase the work they do to protect people and the environment in mining areas. In the New Year we will share more of these images and the stories behind them, so watch these channels to find out more!

As an emergency response organisation we have operational colleagues across Great Britain ready to respond and take action to keep people and property safe. Call us any time on 0800 288 4242 ☎️

We'd like to wish all of our followers an enjoyable festive season! We look forward to sharing more of our work with you in 2025. While our channels may be quieter, we remain open and operational throughout the festive period, continuing to provide 24/7/365 incident and emergency response across Great Britain.
