Situation

Leiston is an affluent Suffolk town 20 miles north east of Ipswich benefitting from being 2 miles west of Sizewell B Nuclear Power Station and the new Sizewell C Project. The Sizewell C Project is the construction of a 3.2 gigawatt nuclear power station, expecting to complete in the next 9-12 years at a cost of £38 billion and expecting to create 10,000 jobs during construction and expected to be in operation for at least 60 years. The project will further benefit the local economy by way of The Sizewell C Memorandum of Understanding and The Neighbourhood Fund. Under the Memorandum of Understanding, the Sizewell C Consortium has committed to spending £4.4 billion with businesses across the East of England, supporting regional employment, skills and supply-chain opportunities (https://www.sizewellc.com/news-views/final-investment-decision-reached-for-sizewell-c-the-biggest-british-clean-energy-project-in-a-generation/).
