Families in a Norfolk town are demanding action over the stench from a nearby factory which many said was making daily life miserable.
Banham Poultry, whose processing plant is a short walk from Attleborough town centre, apologised last week after families in the town reported a 'smell like rotting flesh' flooding their homes, caused by an equipment failure.
On Wednesday January 23, the factory released a statement claiming the issue had been fixed, but many in the town were not satisfied with the response and said foul odour had been a problem since the plant was built four years ago.
Rhodri Oliver, Norfolk County Councillor for Attleborough, said he was concerned that no final solution had been found and has called a meeting at 3pm, Saturday, February 2 at at Connaught Hall, The Frances Room on Station Road.
Mr Oliver, who also represents the Attleborough Queens and Besthorpe ward on Breckland District Council, said: 'If people are interested in discussing a solution to the problem I will act as a mediator to liaise between the community, the environmental agency and Banham Poultry,'
