Millions of people hit with new hosepipe ban

Millions of people face restrictions on their water usage as South East Water has issued a hosepipe ban. The water company has taken the decision following record levels of demand.

Households in Kent and Sussex will be affected by the ban. The company has said it has been left with "no choice" but to restrict the use of hosepipe.

The restrictions are due to come in from June 26.

Restrictions are already in force in the South West of England where South West Watyer has had hosepipe bans for months.
