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: Medicines and Healthcare

By
Hello all, The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency have issued a warning to keep head lice treatments away from naked flames. You may wish to share this with your school community and discuss it with staff where there may be a curriculum issue to address too? Here is the warning: Check product instructions as some head lice products can ignite your hair if near a naked flame. Parents, caregivers and people with head lice are being reminded to always read product instructions before applying head lice removal products. Some of these products have the potential to ignite when in the presence of an open flame – such as when lighting cigarettes. The Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) has issued a  Drug Safety Alert  advising pharmacists to tell people about the risk of fires when they discuss options to treat head lice. With some head lice removal products easily accessible at supermarkets and without a pharmacist’s guiding hand

DS Risk Warning: 28 March: Extinction Rebellion Demonstration ‘Sound the Alarms’ 10 - 4 pm

By
Hello all, Avon and Somerset Police have informed us of an ‘organised civil disobedience’ event that may take place today, Thursday 28th March, whereby members of Extinction Rebellion and possibly sympathisers are proposing to set off multiple [fire] alarms.  There is no known information on which buildings/when but the assumption is that they will target schools, institutions and public buildings. The Bristol Director Education and Skills has shared this scant information with Bristol schools and nothing more. We haven't heard that it has been distributed more widely so we do so just in case to our Agreement/SLA customers. Fire doesn't give notice of where and when it will occur so our best advice, unless you have a delay on the system that allows checking the status of the issue before the alarm sounders go live, is to take any activation seriously and evacuate. If it turns out to be a hoax, false activation, etc, why not log it as an alternative to your t

DS Risk Warning: Health - Coronavirus/Covid 19

By
Hello all, We have been asked, and in the light of yesterday's Government announcement, please find our updated draft risk assessment to hopefully cover many of the issues you are now faced with to make provision for a restricted number of pupils in the categories described, while the majority are asked to stay at home. We appreciate this is a huge challenge and more explanation will be very helpful but it does represent an important contribution to helping flatten the curve of infection and protect the vulnerable as far as possible.  In the mix you have more issues to take into account and handle sensitively such as staff who live with the vulnerable, have vulnerabilities themselves, on top of those who indeed already have it themselves, who in the vast majority will shake it off over 7 days and will then be available for work and resistant to further infection, of course.
