Storm Arwen: Power restored to all homes in north-east of England after 12 days

The remaining homes and businesses without power in the north-east of England have had supplies restored, 12 days after Storm Arwen.

Northern Powergrid says the extent of the damage from Storm Arwen will take them well into the new year to fix, and generators will be removed once permanent repairs are made. The Army was brought in last week but troops are set to leave County Durham on Wednesday after helping to support communities.
