With the ongoing hot, dry weather and Saturday set to be the hottest on record, you may notice tankers in the Buchan Hill area in Sussex over the weekend.
These are here to support us in keeping taps flowing during these times of unprecedented water demand.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and completely understand that with the sunshine and lack of holidays people wish to enjoy their gardens, paddling pools, hot tubs, water fights, water their gardens and lawns and even wash cars. However, these non-essential activities risk drawing water away from crucial requirements like hand washing, cleaning, cooking, washing and medical requirements.
Thank you to all in the local community who are being considerate with their water usage.
