The Hose Pipe Ban Update

After weeks of the Hose Pipe ban being in place by seven southern based water companies, three of them will be lifting the ban today, 14th June.  Anglian Water, Southern Water and Thames water are the three concerned and are some of the UK's biggest water companies.

Water is a complex thing, this week alone has seen heavy rain in area of the country.  However rivers are said to be only just getting back to normal, resvoirs have made it up to 75% full but there is still a shortage of ground level water in parts.

South East Water, Southern and East Surrey Water, Veolia Water Central and Veolia Water South are still enforcing the hose pipe ban.
