Severn Trent issue 'no drinking water warning'
Severn Trent Water has issued a warning to customers in the Tenbury Wells area of Worcestershire not to drink their water supply.
A water pipe has burst in the area and the company says a very small amount of floodwater may have gone back into the pipe. The repair to that pipe has now been completed.
The utility firm say it affects residents in the WR15 8 postcode or the SY8 4AU postcode.
They are advising customers affected not to use the water for drinking, preparing food or brushing their teeth but that it may still be used for bathing and flushing the toilet, with special care when bathing children and babies.
Free bottled water is being provided for those people in the affected areas. This is available to be collected from the car park of Tenbury Community Hospital and from the car park of Tenbury Swimming Pool.
Severn Trent has apologised for the inconvenience.
