Delegated Services Risk Warning: Water Supplies

 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.

DS Risk Warning: UK raises terror threat level to ‘severe’ following Vienna attack

  Home Secretary Priti Patel has confirmed the escalation of the UK terror threat level from "substantial" to "severe" following an attack in Vienna that left at least three dead. The change means that an attack on UK soil is now deemed "highly likely". The Joint Terrorism Analysis Centre has changed the UK terror threat level from substantial to severe. This is a precautionary measure and is not based on any specific threat. The potential is for UK based 'lone wolfs' to be emboldened to take action themselves which could take place anywhere in the UK. We are asked to continue to remain vigilant and report any suspicious activity to the police on 999 or the anti-terrorist hotline: 0800 789 321. If your information does not relate to an imminent threat, you can also contact MI5 . What the threat levels mean: Threat levels are designed to give a broad indication of the likelihood of a terrorist attack. LOW means an attack is highly unlikely MODERATE ...

  The Met Office have upgraded the warning for tomorrow as follows: Red weather warning issued  Strong and damaging winds across parts of Wales and southwest England  Saturday 0300 – 1100 Our advice changes in such circumstances to, do all you can today, but any checking approach during the day tomorrow should only be considered in extremis in the red zone and very carefully indeed risk assessed. Beware too the boundaries are changing of the zones, as more data comes in. Checks may need to wait until Sunday. NB: Many are postponing anything planned for tomorrow to allow safety at home in the red zone and extreme caution in the amber. This needs to apply to your sites.

Met Office Chief Forecaster, Jason Kelly, said:  “The worst impacts from Storm Darragh will be felt as we go through the early hours of tomorrow morning and throughout Satur...
