Volunteers from a water company helped tidy up a museum.

The team from Essex and Suffolk water cleaned artefacts and tidied the site at the Museum of Power in Langford.

It was part of the water firm’s Make my day campaign, held last week, to give something back to the community.

Earlier this year, the company asked its customers and employees to nominate people or organisations that they felt deserved a treat and hundreds of suggestions came in.

A panel of judges then tackled the tough task of deciding who the lucky recipients should be.

Volunteer Phil Turner, from Essex & Suffolk Water, said: "Make my day is a fantastic opportunity to get out there and show our appreciation to the communities we serve by giving something back and it was a really good day at the Museum of Power.

"It's such a fantastic piece of history, housed in one of our former water pumping stations, and some of the items there are really fascinating."

Dick Waylen, chairman of the Museum of Power thanks those who had taken part.
