Hi, what can we help you with today?

From 12 noon on Tuesday 14 July, a hosepipe ban is being introduced for properties in Mid Devon and parts of East Devon.

Use the postcode checker on this page to learn more about ban restrictions and see if your home is in the impacted area.

Imposing a hosepipe ban is always a last resort, but it is needed to ensure there’s enough water for essential use (drinking, washing, cooking, sanitation and laundry).

The ban follows exceptionally high demand for water during the current heatwave. We are working hard to resolve the situation and will lift the ban as soon as we can.

No, swimming isn’t allowed in any of our reservoirs.

However, there are many recreational activities including wakeboarding, sailing and windsurfing available through South West Lakes Trust at designated sites.
