Available for over a year

After more than 600 fish were saved from a lake in Kenilworth, a Councillor's calling for a long term plan to protect them in future. Hundreds of fish died in Abbey Fields when water levels dropped in the heatwave. Local people even clubbed together to buy a tanker of water to try to top up the levels. But now many of the fish have been taken to safety at the nearby Lavender Hall Fishery. Councillor Richard Hales is Deputy Leader of Warwick District Council and told BBC CWR's Rich Williams they will now have to look how to protect the site in the future.
