We are currently investigating the possibility of pursuing a civil claim on behalf of residents in your area against Biowise Limited in relation to odour which may be emanating from its premises at the composting facility in Willerby, Hull.
The proposed claim would be for compensation for past (and any ongoing) loss of enjoyment of your home caused by the odour and possibly a claim for an injunction to ensure that the site brings an end to the odour nuisance. The aim of the claim is to ensure that Biowise is operating its site with due respect to its neighbours and without emitting excessive odour levels in the neighbourhood. It is not the aim of the claim to close the site down or to cause job losses.
Hugh James has been approached to act for a number of clients in a group action against Biowise Limited for compensation for past nuisance arising from these odours and so that steps can be taken to ensure the environment improves substantially and the persistent odours come to an end.
