Delegated Services Risk Warning: Water Supplies

By

 Hello all,


Bristol Water are reporting damage to a water main in the Nailsea / Backwell area. The damaged main is affecting a local reservoir so they are working to isolate the damage and repair the main. Properties in the following areas might experience no water/poor pressure due the damage:

Nailsea / Clevedon / Wraxall / Claverham / Portishead / Clapton in Gordano / Weston in Gordano / Portbury / Yatton



They say they are delivering bottled water to their Priority Service customers, starting with the most vulnerable. Staff are currently collecting the bottles and will be making deliveries. They are also setting up water stations where customers will be able to collect water. 

If you have a medical condition or disability, and are not already registered on the Priority Services register, please call us on 0345 702 3797.

​To keep up to date with progress of the response and recovery visit:


NB: Depending on progress, at a minimum, if the repair is quick and successful, flushing will probably be needed, however, if not achieved your service continuity may be impacted and plans activated for the morning.

Bill

DS Risk Warning: Health - Coronavirus/Covid 19

Hello all, You may well have already heard or seen that as a result of the Government's meeting today on this issue they have moved to a different level of response to the virus and its progress namely DELAY. After reading the following and reflecting on it you may come to the conclusion a communication to all staff and another to parent/carers would be timely, as soon as possible, to try to stave off issues on site tomorrow morning. With immediate effect the advice is that anyone with a new persistent cough or high temperature should self-isolate for seven days. From Friday, school trips abroad will be banned. This should trigger the ability to claim from your insurers but there's no compensation for the disappointment and lost opportunity, of course. Older people and those with pre-existing health conditions are being told not to go on cruises. PM Boris Johnson said it was "the worst public health crisis for a generation".   He said there was no...

DS Risk Warning: Health - Cornavirus/Covid 19

Priority Wed, 26 Feb, 20 Hello all, Looking at how things are progressing and supporting you with your many enquiries can we suggest, if you haven't done so already, a communication to your community and staff? The content would be to reassure that you are following the national and local advice. You could then copy and paste the advice from yesterday that includes the list of Category 1 and Category 2 locations and the list of Italian lock down villages. If you can you can go on to say nobody has returned from lock down areas anywhere in the world. Some have returned from areas where the advice is clear on being vigilant in case symptoms appear. If that were to be the case they will then follow the self isolate advice, etc. it would be sensible to recognise that the situation is very dynamic and could already be changing as you send your communication. You will update them on your position if anything material changes, but they can also keep up to date ...

DS Risk Warning: Health; Coronavirus/Covid 19

Hello all, Thanks for the feedback on the model risk assessment. We're improving on it and will reissue for next week. Any other comments most welcome. Helpfully a number of you commented on the return to work after an illness content of the cover email. We agree, without testing it won't be possible to know what the illness has been and it is perfectly possible that returners may need to self isolate again if symptoms occur again, just in case. Hopefully both testing of those with it and those who may have had it will accelerate to aid the confidence around returning to a form of normal. We heard yesterday that the Government hopes effort by all will see the worst behind us by the end of June. However, a later in the year return of the virus is in the planning. There is also work going on in terms of isolation fatigue. We don't seem to be doing well as a society in terms of not panic buying! Goodness knows how attitudes will pan out and potentially impact o...
