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.

Bill

  Critical Update With thanks to our NPs the S W Cyber Resilience Centre, we bring you their updated advice. Please pay close attention to it, regardless that it flows from the attacks on the retail sector. The approach taken can be applied anywhere! The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) has issued a critical warning following a wave of cyber attacks on major UK retailers including M&S, Co-op and Harrods.

Risk Warning: 3Cs; Police call on public to help tackle terror threat

Hello all, We’re supporting a national campaign launched today (6/3) by Counter Terrorism Policing urging the public to act on their instincts to help tackle the terrorist threat. With the terror threat becoming increasingly complex and varied, we’re joining police forces across the country in calling on communities to act on their instincts to help prevent atrocities taking place in the UK and overseas.

Mr Rowley told an audience of community and business representatives in Manchester that information from the public continues to play significant part in recent successes i...

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 ...
